This is a first outing in SOS for Polish speaker manufacturers APS, but they're already impressing us.
I have to admit to never having tried Polish‑built APS (Audio Pro Solutions) monitors before, but as soon as I'd played a few tracks through them I could tell that they were a class act. The IO model that's reviewed here is priced similarly to comparable Mackies, and the smaller Dynaudio and ADAM monitors. They may appeal to those who prefer a more neutral, British sound, because my strong initial impression is that they tell it how it is.
The APS IO monitor is an outwardly conventional active two‑way design in a ported cabinet, with an electronics pack that comprises the two power amplifiers and electronic crossover that are necessary to power the system. It is essentially a smaller version of the company's Aeon design. The electronics pack is fitted to the metal back-panel, which also has a finned heatsink to aid cooling. Both drivers are powered from TDA 7294 monolithic amplifier chips, which are rated at 70W each.
Norwegian company SEAS build both the drivers used here. Unusually, the one‑inch tweeter is available either as a titanium‑ or a fabric‑dome version (we had the fabric‑dome version in for review). Both drivers are magnetically shielded for use close to CRT monitors. A seven‑inch, cellulose, paper‑coned driver looks after the bass/mid for both versions, and this is suspended in a soft rubber surround.
MDF seems to be the main cabinet material, and the baffle edges are rounded to reduce cabinet‑edge diffraction, which might otherwise have a small detrimental effect on the stereo imaging. The dual ports are also flared to reduce wind noise, and exit via the baffle. Because the cabinet is small and has fairly thick walls, it is too rigid to have significant resonance problems. Both drivers are recessed into the baffle, and the woofer is secured using cap head wood‑screws that are driven directly into the MDF. Although this isn't as elegant as bolts and captive nuts, it doesn't seem to cause any problems. A satin black finish is applied to the entire cabinet.
Optical limiters are used to protect both drivers, and the power amps are protected against RF interference, overheating, short circuit and over‑current. The crossover filters are set to 1.5kHz with a 24dB/octave slope. Power comes in on an IEC cable, with a switch next to the socket. The balanced XLR input also links to a balanced line output for passing the signal on to an active sub or other device. A balanced TRS jack input is also available courtesy of a Neutrik Combi socket that accepts either jack or XLR inputs, and there's a ground‑lift switch that may be useful in eliminating ground‑loop hum in problem systems. When the speakers are powered up, the APS logo on the front panel lights up blue: this flashes green when the input signal triggers the high-frequency limiter, and red if the bass amplifier limiter steps in to prevent driver damage.
Although compact, at 330 x 210 x 300mm, these speakers are quite substantial for their size (13kg), and have an impressively wide frequency range, extending from 44Hz to 30kHz within ±2dB. They're capable of delivering peak levels of 112dB at one metre, or 104dB RMS, which is more than adequate for nearfield listening. The published signal‑to‑noise ratio is 103.5dB A‑weighted, or 101dB 20Hz to 20kHz, and listening tests show no significant background noise during operation.
A closer look at the rear panel reveals a number of stepped rotary controls that can be used to tweak the frequency response of the system, to compensate for room acoustics and speaker placement. Input sensitivity is adjustable in eight steps from +30dBu to -10dBV, and the low end can be set in eight steps from ‑15dB to +6dB, which seems rather more range than is strictly necessary. APS have also fitted a 'bass controller' switch, but there's no clear explanation of what this does: the manual simply says that "The Bass Controller Switch allows you to switch off the Bass Controller, decreasing the low bass volume whilst increasing its speed." It seems, therefore, that the choice is between a bit less bass but a tight low end, and a bit more bass level at the expense of tightness. There's also separate adjustment of the tweeter level, again in eight steps, from ‑5dB to +3dB.
My tests were done initially with the rear‑panel controls left set to flat, and the mysterious Bass Controller switch set to off. When comparing the APS IOs with the similarly sized Mackie and ADAM speakers that I normally use for reference, I didn't experience any great shock switching to the IOs, which I often do with some monitors that have a very 'different' sound. I was, however, immediately impressed by the firmly controlled bass from such small monitors and also by the detailed mids and high end, which has the kind of smoothness you'd expect from a high‑end British monitor, rather than the more 'forward' character that I tend to associate with US West Coast speakers. The low end isn't overblown, and I guess some bass freaks will think it a bit restrained, but at least it isn't tuned to accentuate only kick drums at the expense of everything else — and to me, it makes for a well‑balanced sound. I have to admit, though, that with the bass switch set to flat, I couldn't discern much difference with the Bass Control switches on or off. When I wanted to add more bass warmth, though, a 3dB bass boost combined with the Bass Control switched on did the trick without seeming excessive.
The stereo imaging also demanded immediate attention: it came over as very wide and stable. Some monitors in this price bracket can tend to muddle the mid‑range slightly, but the APS IOs have a sound that can only described as being very much in focus, with excellent separation between instruments and a good sense of front‑to‑back perspective.
I think the designers of the APS IO speakers have put their money in the right places, namely the drivers and crossover. The amplifiers are perfectly competent but affordable on‑chip devices, and the cabinet construction and speaker mounting is pretty basic, but again functional. Their tonal balance is about right for speakers of their size, with enough bass to do the job but not so much as to mask the mid‑range, and there's definitely no flab to the low end. I particularly like the smooth but detailed high end and clear mid‑range — they made good mixes sound good and bad ones sound bad, which is exactly what you want. While you probably wouldn't use small monitors like this for mixing bass‑driven dance music, they work well in smaller rooms, and deliver an honest opinion of your mixes at a cost that may be above entry level, but is also way below exotic. All in all, I have to admit to being impressed by my first encounter with APS monitors.
The alternatives really depend on your tonal preferences. If you like the honest, smooth, 'British' sound, I'd look at AVI's powered speakers, the new Mackie HRM 624 Mk2s, or some of the smaller PMC models, but if you like a bit more air around the top end, the ADAM A7s do a great job, as do the smaller Dynaudio and Genelec models. Of course, you might also try the titanium-tweeter version of the IOs, although I've not yet heard them myself.
Sensibly priced given the sound quality.
Good tonal balance that delivers a detailed sound without harshness.
Drivers are held in with screws rather than bolts, so these may work loose in time.
The IOs are thoughtfully designed monitors, based on good components and established design principles. They deliver a detailed, smooth sound with a tightly controlled and slightly restrained low end with plenty of tonal balance adjustment on the rear panel.

The Jon Favreau-directed remake of The Lion King is nearly destined to be absolutely incredible, especially considering its star-studded cast, which includes Beyoncé, James Earl Jones and Childish Gambino, among others.
However, in addition to the undeniably epic casting, a new report is suggesting that the soundtrack is going to be just as much on point, with Beyoncé and Elton John rumored to be teaming up together.
As reported, Elton John is on track to make as much as $13 million as a result of the new film, with the British pop icon agreeing on a deal to rework his original compositions from the 1994 animated classic.
Not only that, but Beyoncé has also found her name in the mix, with a source sharing with the New York Daily News that the beloved singer will also be involved with the remake's musical component.
"The songs will be thread into the storyline," an anonymous source revealed. "It is unthinkable when you have Beyoncé involved not to have her sing some of those iconic hits — and that means huge sales to a new generation. The deal is a huge one and will earn him millions at many stages. Obviously [Elton John] will get a one-off licensing deal followed by a cut in royalties from all aspects of the work."
While the news has yet to be officially confirmed by Beyoncé, fans are already imagining how wondrous the collaboration would be.
Take a look at the full cast announcement for the Lion King here.


As much as we Seattle-ites crave the sun, the minute it gets above 75 degrees we are just too hot. So air conditioning our homes has become more and more popular. Even 100-year-old craftsman homes are being retrofitted with central air conditioning, ductless split systems, and heat pumps. As we've covered in previous articles, the equipment you choose is important, but it is only one part of designing an energy efficient, cool home. Our HVAC Specialists have three more top ways to optimize your AC.
One of the most common complaints that we hear about central cooling is differential cooling in the floors of a house. This is a problem for homes in which an air conditioning system or heat pump has been added that uses the ductwork in the home. These homeowners find that the upstairs never gets quite cool enough, or if it does, the downstairs is freezing.
Unfortunately, one of the main reasons that differential cooling happens is due to home design. Our homes in the Pacific Northwest, including new construction, were designed for efficient heating, not cooling. The vents are placed on the floor, allowing hot air to naturally rise through the room. Cool air sinks, making floor placement inefficient. The cool air has to fight its way up to us. To ensure you get enough cool where you need it, it's important to size the cooling equipment properly and consider points 2 and 3 below.
Remember the old days when you used a can opener that made a hole in the lid of a can? Just having one puncture did not let much of the liquid out, but making a second puncture on the opposite side of the lid greatly enhanced the flow out of the can. Similarly, in older homes where second stories have been added, there may be too few ducts and cold air returns to keep air flowing evenly. This not only impacts your comfort but is also needed for the proper and efficient functioning of the fan system that is distributing the air. If air can return back to the fan naturally, it doesn't have to push as hard. Fortunately, ducts and cold air returns can be added to most homes.
Another option which works well in Seattle homes is to skip central air systems altogether and choose a ductless split system. Ductless cooling is quiet, energy efficient and best of all, it can be adjusted separately in each room or common area to optimize cooling. Ductless systems offer tremendous flexibility. There are split systems which do only cooling and those that do both heating and cooling. We find that most homes with the upstairs - downstairs temperature variability have it in winter as well, making the combined heating and cooling option most popular.
If you are reading this and you already have installed a cooling system, but just need a little less heat upstairs in the house, a well-placed attic fan can help as can closing blinds in hot rooms.
Ask your Fox HVAC Specialist for more tips on staying cool this summer.

NORTH OGDEN, Utah — A 7-year-old boy is being recognized by police for saving his father's life.
Ryker Comley was at home with his two sisters when his dad, Justin, had a seizure. Falling on his face, Justin broke his nose but the seizure didn't stop.
Comley's mother, Jazmin, was more than an hour away and the family had just moved in — Ryker didn't know any of his neighbors.
Sgt. Jeremy Hindes with the North Ogden Police Department said his fellow officer took the call but didn't realize it was a 7-year-old who placed it until he arrived on scene.
"Who knows how long or what could've happened to the father had the 7-year-old not taken the steps that he took," said Sgt. Hindes.
Ryker kept his little sisters calm and even grabbed the dog after he got out — Ryker put him back in his kennel.
"After seeing what he did, it just really opens our eyes to how brave he is and how really smart he is," said Jazmin.
Sgt. Hindes was so impressed with Ryker, he presented a certificate and coin they give to other policemen for their good duties — honoring the shy, 7-year-old like one of their brothers in blue.
"To have somebody else outside the family say, your 7-year-old did something great we'd like to recognize him for that, that means a whole lot," said Justin who still has scars on his face from hitting it during the seizure.
And even though Ryker didn't want to say much, his shy smile said it all.
"I certainly would call him a hero," said Sgt. Hindes.


Sometimes we make very bad decisions. Decisions rooted in selfishness, a need to feel special, wanting to be someone we're not or wanting something that's not ours. A decision made out of greed, jealousy, unworthiness, lust or addiction.
Initially, we convince ourselves we're right. We find Yes Men to support our reasoning and we attempt to carry on as if all is well.
Something is not right. If we're real honest with ourselves, we notice shame, guilt and regret are eating us alive. Emotions pointing to the fact, we did something terribly wrong.
We push it down. Convince ourselves we are right. Call our Yes Men to gather more evidence. And for a moment, we feel justified again.
But our soul knows the truth. We feel it. We can't escape it. We know we made a bad decision.
My friend, Yes. You. Can.
It's never too late to make right.
Whether it's a reparation of damages, monetary reimbursement or payment, leaving a situation you shouldn't be in, backing out so the right thing can happen, shutting your mouth or dropping your attack.
But there is something that trumps ALL of that.
Own what you did, where you went wrong. How you came to the conclusions/decisions you made. Why you thought it was okay. Why you now know it's not.
Own the pain you caused your friend/coworker/family member. Humble your heart and ask him/her for forgiveness.
And in that moment, that Holy Instant, when you've reconnected with Source, you will be restored. You are not beyond redemption. You are a beautiful child of God.
Even if your person is still struggling with your behavior, you can rest knowing you've done YOUR part to make right.
I believe in you. I really and truly do.


Saturday8:00 am – 6:00 pm.
The Lucky Taco comes in the form of a Taco truck which is often situated in a carpark round 230 Ponsonby Road (although they have been known to spontaneously drop in randomly on other popular locations around Auckland).
The story behind The Lucky Taco is almost as great as the food itself. Born out of passion, self-motivation and sheer drive to deliver great Mexican food, Sarah and Otis have created a truly unique eating experience for New Zealanders, and every time the food truck is about, the area is packed.
The tacos themselves are divine. Made with the soft shell taco, so it doesn't bust apart in your hands, these little morsels will set you back $7 bucks a pop, but it is recommended that you shell out the $20 for 3 tacos and get your fill on as many flavours as you can. Vegetarian, fish and even a breakfast taco adorn the menu along with a few seasonal specials. The pulled pork taco literally melts away in your mouth to the point you can't finish it fast enough. This one often runs out, so get in as soon as they pull on the handbrake!
100 percent organic 100 percent raw 100 percent of the time.
A Ponsonby Road favourite that, despite many comings and goings on the hospitality strip, has proved a bit of a mainstay.
One of the must-visits of Ponsonby's many designer fashion stores.
As the shop's name suggests, the focus here is on items for the home that are practical and useful – the kind of things you couldn't imagine living without.

Real Estate Agents Who Tell Tenants To Pay Rent With Their Super Could Face Jail Time
By Bree Gashparac
3rd September, 2020
ASIC said it is aware some real estate agents are advising tenants who are unable to pay their rent to consider dipping into their superannuation.
The corporate watchdog says real estate agents face jail time if they advise struggling tenants to consider dipping into their superannuation to pay rent.
The Australian Securities and Investments Commission on Friday sent a letter to the real estate institutes in each state saying it was aware some real estate agents are advising tenants who are unable to pay their rent, or who may find themselves in such a situation in future, to consider applying for early release of their superannuation.
Workers laid off during COVID-19 pandemic have been told they would be allowed to access up to $20,000 in super savings over the next two years. ASIC warned any property agent who advises renters to do so may be in breach of the Corporations Act and face a five-year prison term, a $126,000 fine, and a $1.26 million fine for their business.
"Tenants facing financial difficulty need sound financial guidance and potentially debt counselling," ASIC said.
The ABC reported on Friday an incident where a tenant in Brisbane was told their ability to dip into their super would be noted on their rental history in an email sent about half an hour after government announced a six-month moratorium on evictions.
Property site Domain earlier this week wrote that some Victorian tenants seeking rental decreases have been asked to list how much they spend on food, bills and entertainment, whether they have accrued leave hours, and whether they had drawn down on their superannuation.
In some cases, property managers have contacted tenants before the subject was raised, Domain reported.
ASIC said financial advice must only be provided by qualified and licensed financial advisers, or financial counsellors, not by real estate agents who neither hold the requisite licence, nor are an authorised representative of an Australian Financial Services Licensee.
The watchdog said it intends to monitor this situation closely and "will not hesitate to act swiftly to protect vulnerable consumers".
ASIC's letter comes after Prime Minister Scott Morrison last weekend announced a six-month moratorium on residential and commercial evictions as an increasing number of people find themselves without work due to coronavirus lockdown measures.

EAA unveils new Founder's Innovation Prize competition to introduce new safety technology
Annual cash prizes part of competition for amateur-built aircraft concepts
EAA AVIATION CENTER, OSHKOSH, Wisconsin — (July 22, 2015) — The Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) today introduced a new Founder's Innovation Prize competition that will encourage innovation to enhance safety in amateur-built aircraft. It will use the best ideas from EAA members and chapters, with the encouragement of cash prizes for the best emerging technology.
The competition was announced at the annual EAA AirVenture Oshkosh fly-in during a forum that included Christopher Hart, Chairman of the National Transportation Safety Board, Charlie Precourt, Chairman of the EAA Safety Committee, and Sean Elliott, EAA's vice president of advocacy and safety. It will also be highlighted at several other forums throughout AirVenture week.
The annual prize will have a specific safety focus each year, with the upcoming year's goal emphasizing the design and development of a low-cost solution that recognizes imminent loss of control (LOC) in aircraft and provides an innovative way of increasing situational awareness or automation to the pilot.
"This is about bringing together the best thinking among all our members to improve safety for all of us," Elliott said. "We challenge EAA members and chapters to use the 'hand, mind, and heart' credo of EAA's founder, Paul Poberezny, to continually move the safety standard higher and again show how the ingenuity of the homebuilt aircraft community can efficiently make flying better and safer for all of us."
The competition's judging criteria and timeline is also innovative. Entrants will focus on cost, ease of installation, simplicity, wide applicability, and effectiveness in reducing loss-of-control occurrences.
Entries will be accepted beginning October 1, 2015. The top five entries will be invited to a Theater in the Woods presentation at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2016, where judges that include notable names in homebuilt aircraft will review and critique the five innovations in a live, "Shark Tank"-style program. The judging panel will be led by chief judge and legendary aircraft designer Burt Rutan.
The designer of the winning idea will receive a $25,000 cash prize, with the second-place innovation receiving $10,000 and third place $5,000.
"This is not a one-year concept," Elliott said. "This will be a yearly, ongoing competition that encourages safety innovation for amateur-built aircraft and general aviation. We advance the amateur-built community and all of general aviation by learning from one another and inspiring ideas to move forward."
About EAA
EAA embodies the spirit of aviation through the world's most engaged community of aviation enthusiasts. EAA's 190,000 members and 1,000 local chapters enjoy the fun and camaraderie of sharing their passion for flying, building and restoring recreational aircraft.

Ready for a Byfuglien-sized hit of action in 2015?
We're really going to kick it, FIFA-style.
YES! We are getting FIFA action right here in Winnipeg! Catch premier teams from around the globe battle it out in an attempt to win the gold trophy in the FIFA Women's World Cup Canada 2015! From June 8 to 16, crowds will be out in full force to cheer on teams from around the world. And not only is Winnipeg going to be front and center on soccer's world stage, but our Group D is widely considered the Group of Death (and that's a good thing).
So fist pumps all around.
We aim to hit it out of the park!
Root for the home team at Shaw Park during Winnipeg Goldeyes baseball games! The ballpark's open concourse and luxury sky suites offer superb views, and you can nosh on everything from pretzels to poutine at the concessions. The Clay Oven restaurant overlooking the field serves up some of the city's best East Indian cuisine. After the final run, head to a nearby pub in the Exchange District or hit up a patio at The Forks for post-game relaxation.
Our boys in BLUE are going to catch the fever.
Because there ain't no party like a Grey Cup party.
On November 29, Winnipeg will host Canada's largest sporting event – the CFL's 103rd Grey Cup Game! During the week prior to kickoff, the city will come alive with parties, pancake breakfasts and special events. Here's hoping the Blue Bombers make it to the cup, because 1990 was soooo long ago (just look at those tucked in jackets we were wearing in those days. Yikes).
Many of you will be enticed by the relaxing lure of fishing.
While hitting the links will be par FORE! the course.
Picking which club to use to get off a better shot than this is much easier than deciding which of Manitoba's more than 120 golf courses to play. From lakeside links, to fairways next to farmers' fields, to putting greens nestles along rocky Canadian Sheild outcrops, tee off at top courses surrounded by Manitoba's natural beauty.
Lake-lovers will hear the water calling their name.
Water, water everywhere. Whether it's water skiing, sailing, kayaking or swimming, summer is THE season to get your water sports thrills (and spills) on the many lakes and rivers in Manitoba.
Even our Vikings like to play games.
…of the killing-sort. Ok, so there is no actual Viking massacres happening in Gimli, but there are Viking games. Every August long-weekend, the Gimli Viking Village demonstrates warfare and tactics during the Icelandic Festival (or Islendingadagurinn). For 2015, portrayals will be focusing on the 850 to 950 period of Viking cultures across Scandinavia, The British Isles, Iceland, Greenland and North America.
Once summer ends, the Jets rev up their engines for takeoff!
Time to drop the puck! The good ol' hockey game brings the roar of the crowd to MTS Centre when the NHL's Winnipeg Jets hit the ice for regular-season games from October to April, and there's plenty of pre- and post-game action at surrounding pubs, clubs and eateries like The Pint, Shark Club, The Met, and Tavern United.
And remember, the American Hockey League's Manitoba Moose are baaaaack! The AHL remains the top developmental hockey league in the world, with more than 88% of current NHL players having developed their skills in the AHL.
Fall is when the sticks come out in full force all around the province.
The Brandon Wheat Kings suit up for Western Hockey League action at the Keystone Centre, while the Manitoba Junior Hockey League teams score with fans in Dauphin, Neepawa, Winnipeg, The Pas, Selkirk, Winkler, Virden, Swan Valley, Portage la Prairie, Steinbach and Waywayseecappo.
While winter is the best time to Curl up with a good bonspiel.
Almost every small town is home to at least one sheet of ice, and some of the world's best curlers – including the reigning women's Olympic gold medallists – are from Manitoba. From funspiels to elite level curling, hurrying hard is what we do. And yes, our own Jennifer Jones made that shot. She's the Lebron James of women's curling.
Because we embrace the winter chill like nobody's business!
The cold weather never slows us down. From skiing under wide-open skies and dog sledding across frozen lakes, to horseback riding through pine-scented trails or skating on a frozen pond, there's no shortage of snow fun to be had here.
Where a snow day becomes the best day.
February rivals June now for the busiest time of year at The Forks – one of Winnipeg's loveliest public spaces. Ever since the Arctic Glacier Winter Park and Red River Mutual Trail – the longest naturally frozen skating trail in the world – opened, The Forks is the hottest place to play on the ice and enjoy the best of winter activities.
So let's all celebrate our Year of Sport by bringing planking back!
Actually, let's not bring back planking.
Thumbs up to an action-packed year!
A Chuck Norris approved one!

Precise Control of Catalytic Reactions
[POSTECH Professor In Su Lee's team develops a nanoreactor combining magnetic material and plasmonic catalysts.]
[Remote control of step-by-step catalytic reactions of precursor led to cinnamaldehyde product with 95% yield.]
Various chemical reactions occur one after another in cells, and life is maintained as each step of the reaction is regulated without error. Recently, a Korean research team has developed a dual-catalyst system that can precisely control catalytic reactions like cells.
A POSTECH research team led by professor In Su Lee, research assistant professors Amit Kumar and Nitee Kumari, and master's student Jongwon Lim (Department of Chemistry) developed a nanoreactor that combines magnetic materials and metal catalysts.
A nanoreactor combining two or more catalysts causes a continuous catalytic reaction to help synthesize precise chemicals. However, each step in the synthesis is influenced by each other owing to a wide range of temperatures and pressures, making it extremely challenging to control the reaction steps or suppress side reactions.
To overcome this, the research team developed a magnetic-plasmonic multimodular nanoreactor consisting of a magnetic core-shell and a plasmon*1 yolk-shell. A magnetic material at the center of the nanoreactor and a plasmon shell at the edge selectively activate the catalyst under the influence of magnetic fields and near-infrared rays, respectively. As a result, the platform can selectively generate thermal energy without applying external heat. Additionally, the nanoreactor does not harm living things or cause side reactions by minimizing the interference from various catalysts.
As a result of remotely controlling the nanoreactor using magnetic fields and near-infrared rays, the platform produced high value-added cinnamaldehyde (ca. 95%) through a one-pot continuous reaction from simple precursors.
"Using this nanoreactor, it is possible to synthesize complex drugs that could not be synthesized inside the body until now," explained Professor In Su Lee. "Furthermore, the technology is expected to applicable to the field of theranostics, which diagnoses and treats diseases at the same time."
Recently published as the supplementary cover of the August issue of Nano Letters, this study was conducted with the support of the Leader Researcher Program and the Creative & Challenging Program of the National Research Foundation of Korea.
