Quality above all
Being one of the heaviest systems in this class (weight 12.3 kg), the Microlab FC-730 does not have the largest power reserve — only 84 watts. This is actually the average room temperature for systems 5.1. However, ever since the days of the legendary Solo series, Microlab has taught that their stories are not about volume, but about quality. The quality of the materials, the quality of the assembly and, of course, the quality of the sound. And the FC-730 are no exception.
Strontium ferrite subwoofer
First, the system has a separate audio amplifier. On the one hand, this complicates the placement of the system in the room, on the other hand, it positively affects the character of the sound — the company's engineers could focus on the quality of the amplifier, and not think about how to cram a bunch of extra parts into the subwoofer cabinet. Secondly, the subwoofer itself is made of an unusual ferrite-strontium alloy, which is much more familiar to Hi-Fi acoustics than computer speakers.
thoroughbred sound
In fact, it sounds much clearer and more collected than a conventional subwoofer with a plastic (polypropylene) diffuser. To be honest, the FC-730 has one of the best basses of any 5.1 system designed for a computer. Perhaps, in terms of bass, only the S series from Edifier will be better, but the prices there are almost at the level of Hi-Fi systems. As for the mid and low frequencies, the FC-730 also has no problems with them. In general, the speakers sound bright, clear and balanced. Much higher than its price of $150.
Nothing extra
History teaches that if it arrives in one place, then it must leave somewhere. In the case of the FC-730, this applies to truly Spartan equipment — there are remote control bullets with the ability to adjust low frequencies and that's it. No Bluetooth, no flash drives, no wall mounts are provided here. Yes, and connecting only with the help of RCA "tulips" somewhat limits the functionality of the system. Plus, the wires for connecting are a bit short and they may not be enough for a large room. But on each of the satellites, the subwoofer and the centre channel there are protective nets so as not to inadvertently damage the speaker.
All this makes the Microlab FC-730 an interesting option for those who are looking primarily for a reliable and high-quality multi-channel system that will be remembered for its bright sound, rather than rich functionality.
