You probably know that Naim is in a whole different category - this isn't a speaker for people that know Naim, Dali, KEF and Co. It's for potential Sonos or Bose buyers.
It's an unfortunate trend in my opinion, but it's all about small wireless speakers these days. They sound good enough...for their size, but are nowhere close to being comparable to real speakers. Hell, if this was about sound quality you'd be a lot better off with a pair entry level studio monitors (Yamaha, JBL) or budget bookshelf speakers (Elac, Dali Zensor, ...) and probably have money left.
