What reviewers think
Bloggers and YouTubers have tried this product—so we've summarized their strongest opinions below. Links to full reviews follow.
Product Strengths
- Headroom and dynamic capability deliver sound in an unrestricted way.
- Immense dimensionality to concert hall recordings creates an intimate and involving experience.
- The system reproduces the original recording space and unleashes its full potential in 2.0 stereo.
- The level of separation and musical authenticity was astonishing, especially in the reproduction of instruments like cymbals and cellos.
- Musical openness was enlightening, and music was placed under a magnifying glass.
Product Considerations
- May not perform as well with 'dirtier stuff' or modern EDM, potentially sounding a bit sterile and restricting the low end.
- The system needs a big room and space behind the speakers.
- Four people are needed to move one speaker.
- During loud drum bursts it can peak at 108dB which is way above normal listening levels and may be a boundary for the headroom available.
Takeaway: The Model is an amazing sounding system with a wonderfully sounding soundstage. It is a safe investment.

Brand highlights
We analyzed reviewers' thoughts of the brand's entire lineup—not just this product—and what stands out most is the following:
Select products
Every speaker uses fully digital amplification and RoomPerfect room correction, so it adapts to your room. The Model O reaches 35 Hz without a separate woofer, so it suits a small room. The Model A adds two 12 inch woofers, so a living room gets bass down to 25 Hz. The LS Concert is a line source, so every row of a large room hears nearly the same volume. The A1 amplifier has two channels and the A2 has four.
- Start here. The Model O suits a first buyer with a small room who wants full range sound without buying separate woofers.
- Sweet spot. The Model A suits an apartment or media room with no space for woofers, giving you deeper, more powerful bass than the Model O from a speaker that sits against the wall.
- All in. The LS Concert extends the LS Studio with a taller line source, which keeps tone and level even from the front row to the back in very large rooms.

What if you spend more?
The best is in the middle ("In medio stat virtus" the Romans used to say) so in normal size rooms, from 25sqm (250sqft) to 100sqm (1000sqft) we recommend our BOTTICELLI model.
The two panels size is quite classical: 0.64m (25″) wide and 1.77m (70″) height, with a total of 0.9sqm (10sqft) woofer surface on the two channels and weight of 115Kg (255lb) per channel. High sensitivity of 94dB makes possible to use virtually any amplifier.
It is possible to upgrade to Botticelli X or XX buying the two external passive crossovers using an exclusive topology and bigger/higher quality components, connecting cables between speaker and crossover are included. X external crossovers are 430x330x130mm each weight 25Kg including the transparent acrylic base, XX external crossovers are 680x450x130mm each weight 45Kg including the transparent acrylic base.
XX version is using even bigger and higher quality components and connecting cables compared to X version and the result is higher resolution and transparency, it is like upgradind the speakers by one or two levels.

Our take on the brand
What competes at this price?
Our Summary
Product Strengths
- Plenty of deep, satisfying bass and detail, and could go quite loud, even with just 4.3 watts per channel
- One of the most beautiful speakers
- The construction quality and materials are without compromise
- Seamless from top to bottom, which shouldn't be a surprise for full range drivers
- The dispersion characteristics aren't that unusual, the speakers sounded superb from anywhere in the room
Product Considerations
- The distance from the front wall is important because it determines the wavelengths that are reinforced in the room, so experimentation is useful
- The reflectivity of the front wall surface behind the speaker is important
Takeaway: The Songer Audio S2 loudspeakers have great bass and detail and can play loudly, also they are beautiful speakers. The S2 is special because it sounds good everywhere in the room.
