The magazine examine if the C5 - while being compact and non obtrusive - also sounds convinsing? Reviewer Michael Voigt: "The C5 proves itself as very balanced and amazes with excellent dispersion characteristics". "We easily installed a pair of C5s in the corners of our test chamber in a matter of ten minutes. Measuring again in this position, the C5 proved to deliver strong bass and even delivered serious sound pressure below 60 Hz". In the listening room: "Sowing the Seeds of Love" was reproduced by the C5 with full bandwidth, from the deepest synthesizer bass line right through to the fine hissing cymbals. And the best part; the voice of front man Roland Orzabal sounded strikingly with all his special tonations, exactly as it should be". "There is no distinct Sweet Spot. At almost all positions in the room, it is possible to enjoy perfect music". "Great". And in the conclusion: "The excellent made corner speaker C5 from Cornered Audio is perfect for use in space-critical situations or whenever sound systems should be mounted as invisible as possible". "Cornered Audio C5 - a real alternative and a serious recommendation".

The thorough test streches over six pages. Here we bring you a translation of the conclusion: "Good on-wall speakers are unfortunately not very easy to find. All the more gratifying is the fact, that the Cornered Audio C5 not only play very convincing, but does so at an affordable price, making the excellent finished speaker a very interesting alternative to small to medium THX solutions. Compact speakers with high quality optics often mean sonic compromises - but not in the case of the C5. Of course the strict focus on corner and on-wall installation reduces flexibility, but in homes suited to installation of the C5, especially in home theatre applications, you can hardly find anything better for the money, if delicate and refined sound weighs higher than the last ounce of output and dynamics. The many user friendly features such as the high efficiency and the handy cable connection is also very positive. With a switch to adapt the speaker to a matching subwoofer, the C5 would even be a reference candidate, but still our rating of the C5 as "outstanding" is a remarkable result for these compact, powerful speakers".

The 2010 High End Show in Hong Kong marked the world premiere of Cornered Audio's new consumer products. Our distributor, MiroSound, demonstrated Cornered's new C5 model in a Dolby Pro Logic IIz configuration.

Because of the triangular shape of the Cornered speakers, and due to the fact that they mount flush against wall or ceiling without brackets, Cornered speakers are an ideal choice for the IIz configuration, which includes front height channels. In the IIz configuration, Cornered speakers deliver high quality surround sound with discreet placement in corners.

It was also possible to experience the C5 in a traditional 2-channel Hi-Fi application at the show.
