Industry Reviews – (Information Below For Previous Model)
Sound On Sound Magazine Review (Aug 2020):
“The Baby Red (6.5" 2-Way Powered) […] plays a remarkable trick of sounding huge”
“It has enormous authority and clarity and displays all the subjective qualities of a much larger monitor working well within its limits”
“Reverb tails, compression artifacts and imaging qualities
are all startlingly clear”
“The Baby Red is unique, and impossible not to love”
~ PHIL WARD ( All QUOTES FROM Sound On Sound Magazine review, August 2020 ►
A note from Wayne Jones Audio addressing review points:
Tweeter Orientation
The Baby Reds are optimised for time alignment at the 1.5 metre listening spot. They are designed for small studios and the exacting requirements of OB trucks, where close environments create different listening/eq responses when monitors are used on their side or standing upright.
Port Flaring
Non flared ports compress earlier, providing attack that is accurate & highly beneficial during mix judgements. Even to the point of feeling air movement from ports when assessing low frequency.

“Man these speakers should come with a warning! “Sound quality so good, you won’t be able to walk away from them!”” Read More ►
Our Conclusions
- Undeniably Accurate, Faultless Frequency Reproduction, Incredible Depth, Clarity & Dimension
- You will hear Compression & Reverb tails more accurately than you have never heard before
- A whole new level of Transients, Clarity & Distinction
- All this at high & low listening levels
Our first designs intentionally had no DSP. This ensured the system and all components were doing exactly what they should from the source itself. Some companies use DSP to make up for the lack of what the source can’t produce, you can hear that. It simply doesn’t sound right and is misleading.
With the addition of DSP we have fine-tuned the original high praised system to perfection.
Finally, as an engineer, producer or artist your mixes can now be “undeniably accurate” and your work “more enjoyable”. This will translate right down the line through to clients and end consumer.
Even when listening to recordings you know well, you will discover things you never knew existed until now.
The Wayne Jones Audio monitors, gives you a whole new listening experience, transporting you into the very essence of musical dimension.
