CONNECTIVITY
Phono Input: For vinyl LP playback, the SpeakEasy 4’s Phono input is compatible with most turntables without requiring a separate phono preamplifier.
Auxiliary Input: This is an analog input that can connect a CD player, tuner, personal computer, or any other line-level source.
Digital Imputs: The SpeakEasy 4’s Toslinks accept high-resolution audio up to 24-bit/96kHz (two-channel PCM only, no Dolby or DTS decoding is provided).
HDMI-ARC: This makes it easy to get audio from a HDMI-ARC enabled TV (most TVs) to the SpeakEasy 4 — making it a great soundbar substitute in addition to music playback.
USB Port: This allows the playback of song files stored on USB flash drivers directly through the SpeakEasy 4, as well as being able to power and charge a mobile device (smartphones, tablets) or Andover’s own Songbird Streamer.
Bluetooth: The SpeakEasy 4 includes a built-in Bluetooth receiver.
Preamp Outputs: The SpeakEasy 4 also has line pre-outs that permit connection of additional powered speakers, and/or a powered subwoofer.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES
LED Night Mode: This sets the speakers’ internal lights to dim five seconds after the user changes the volume, advances a track, or makes another adjustment.
Control: Easily control the SpeakEasy 4 with its included IR remote, or with its intuitive front-panel control knob with LED to indicate operation modes.
Automatic Power-On: The SpeakEasy 4 wakes from Standby mode when an audio signal is sensed on the input that was active when the speaker was last placed on Standby. This means that when you turn your selected source component on the SpeakEasy 4 will automatically wake so you can hear the music.
Grilles: The speakers come with removable grilles.
Bass Reflex: The SpeakEasy 4 has a MDF (Medium Density Fiberboard) cabinet that incorporates internal bracing and a bass reflex slotted vent for lower resonance.

From Bob Hazelwood, Andover’s Director of Engineering and Product Development: “We enjoyed great success with our unique SpinBase series of one-box powered speakers for vinyl fans…We feel it is important also to offer a more conventional powered speaker option that will not only seamlessly integrate with existing Andover components like the Songbird Streamer and SpinDeck 2 turntable, but also accommodate digital and analog sources via a well-performing, affordable tabletop speaker for anyone looking to significantly enhance these sources’ sound quality. The result is the SpeakEasy 4—effortless setup and operation with detailed sound for a wide range of home entertainment needs. As the name implies, we’ve made something that is easy to connect and use with whatever source you have.”
