I've got a desk, against a wall, with several layers of shelves over it. Early 1990's PC fixture piece type furniture. These speakers blend in very well with the overall decor. The sound is wonderful from four feet above me. My first task upon unboxing was to acquire and view a live hockey game, and it sounded better than my home theater setup, once I had everything properly placed and integrated into the Battle Station. I can't wait to see how WoW:Forever sounds out of these. I'm willingly to bet my immersion levels will be off the charts.
I expected the IMPACTSPHERE GS818 to sound thin and tinny. I was wrong. What stood out immediately was the clarity—vocals are easy to understand, instruments have good separation, and there’s enough upper-bass punch to give music more body than I expected from speakers this small.
They don’t deliver deep bass, but the dedicated subwoofer output gives you a way to add that later. I also appreciate the USB-C digital audio, Bluetooth and AUX options, plus adjustable bass and treble.
The wood fronts and fabric-covered cabinets look great on a desk, and they take up very little room. These surprised me: clear, lively sound in a compact package, with useful features to back it up.
The sound quality is amazing and for the price that it is, these speakers produce much better sound than some that are hundreds of dollars.
I was looking at the Redragon website, and I saw the Impactsphere GS818. They looked beautiful and the specs were amazing. I asked Redragon if they would send me a pair of GS818 speakers for testing, and they kindly provided a review unit. As I write this, I believe I'm the first person to review them.
When I first hooked them up, I was amazed. The sound coming from these compact speakers was far better than I expected. Having designed and built my own loudspeakers back in the 1970s and more recently in 2023, I can honestly say these speakers sound like they are three times their size and twice their price.
The clarity is excellent, and the bass performance is much better than I anticipated from speakers this small. They deliver a rich, full sound that belies their compact dimensions. My wife and I listened to them for hours and we were both impressed with the looks and the sound.
I am genuinely impressed with the GS818 so far. Redragon has absolutely hit this one out of the park. I'll be doing more extensive testing for a full review later, but my first impressions are extremely positive.
