(Apologies if this is the incorrect forum to be asking these sorts of things. I already tried asking in /r/budgetaudiophile as well as in the pinned community help thread to no avail . )

I bought my T0s one year ago and I’ve had zero complaints. However, I just recently learned about the T0+ . Aside from the small QoL changes they’ve made regarding bluetooth connectivity and remote control refinements, would I–someone who isn’t a power user/extremely devoted to audio fidelity–be missing out on the upgrades in the T0+? Things like Hi-Res being supported over USB, better bluetooth codec support, improved default EQ, etc.

    Only issue I ever had with the T0’s was the volume not coming back on after it went into power saving mode when using USB. I found when using Optical cable it had those issues way less. Also just pressing volume up or down on the remote always wakes it back up.

    I doubt it’d be worth upgrading for the minor enhancements of the T0+.

      Sorry for the late reply, and thank you for your answer.

      As you say, I don’t really have any issues with the functionality of the speakers. And thanks for reassuring me that the features that are upgraded in the T0+ aren’t things I should be too fussed about.

    I wouldn’t upgrade for an incremental model update. And that goes across the board in audiophile gear for me, but not everyone feels that way. My thinking is It would need to be a substantial upgrade to really notice a difference. Might as well wait until you are ready to upgrade to the next level of powered speaker and enjoy the TOs for the time being. I have the TO with my small PC system, and they are great.

    Both the original TO and the TO+ measurements are up on Spinorama to compare.

    I just picked up the TO+ and am looking forward to trying it out on my desktop. I’ve been headphone only for years.

      Sorry for the late reply! I was dealing with some stuff on my end. What would you say is a decent entry sub? I can’t remember the source or the specific model off the top of my head, but iirc the Vanatoo engineers recommend a fairly modest sub that you could get off a shelf from a big box store, or something like that.
