It's great fun to unpack the Mapu speakers right away - the packaging is carefully designed with sustainable materials and can be put to a second use. No styrofoam! The start-up is completely trouble-free. Our living room of more than 40 square meters can be absolutely sufficient sound and the beautiful, very balanced sound inspires me again and again. I use the Mapus optionally with the CD player or the record player, which is simply connected to the integrated 3.5 mm jack via a small preamplifier. I'm delighted every day to see my speakers and even more so when, after switching them on, a characteristic klac-klac signals that they're ready for use. They not only sound wonderful, they are just as pleasing to the eye!
