Verdict

The Audio Pro Addon C5 is a compact, mains-powered wireless multiroom speaker measuring 130x250x150 mm and weighing 2.5 kg, featuring a 40W digital Class D amplifier that drives two 0.75-inch textile dome tweeters and a single 4-inch long-throw woofer across a 50 to 20,000 Hz frequency range. Its main characteristics and pros include its robust connectivity suite—supporting 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, Apple AirPlay, Spotify Connect, Ethernet, RCA, and 3.5mm inputs—alongside four customizable physical preset buttons and an exceptional, room-filling soundstage with remarkably deep bass for its size. However, despite its leather carrying handle, it lacks an internal battery, requiring a continuous mains connection that limits its true outdoor portability, and it lacks native voice-assistant support without upgrading to the C5A variant.
