Fiio SP3 - Does Size Really Matter? - Honest Audiophile Impressions
A BIG thank you to Apos Audio providing the Fiio SP3 for review, much appreciated. Does size really matter, especially with speakers? The Fiio SP3 have a small 3.5" mid woofer and 1" tweeter, how do they sound?

I am not a professional sound engineer, producer, musician, or vocalist, etc. I have not done any scientific research, measurements, or in-depth testing of any kind; just my own listening, comparing and internet reading/research. I have limited, real-life experience with recording, mixing and mastering gear. I have been involved since my teenage years with various churches as an amateur sound booth technician.
Please take these thoughts, opinions and reasonings as just that, my honest audiophile thoughts, opinions and reasonings.
