Forte Distribution, the official U.S. distributor for Eversolo, has announced that the company’s first passive bookshelf speaker, the SE100, is now available for purchase across the United States. Priced at an accessible $499 (SRP per pair), the SE100 brings high-fidelity performance to compact spaces, making it an ideal companion for Eversolo’s popular Play Music Streaming Amplifier and a wide range of other high-performance audio setups.
Eversolo, known for its innovative digital audio solutions like streamers and all-in-one players, enters the speaker category with the SE100—a premium two-way passive bookshelf design engineered for accuracy, detail, and effortless integration into modern lifestyles. Its square, compact footprint (290 × 180 × 290 mm) and sleek matte black finish allow seamless placement on speaker stands, desktops, bookshelves, or even popular Ikea KALLAX units, perfect for offices, dorm rooms, bedrooms, or any space-constrained environment.
Blackedge core
At the heart of the SE100 is Eversolo’s proprietary BLACKEDGE CORE two-way architecture, which ensures precise phase and time alignment in the crossover region for natural, focused sonics that preserve the integrity of the original recording. The speaker features a 25mm premium silk dome tweeter paired with a high-flux neodymium motor for smooth, transparent highs, complemented by a custom 5.25-inch paper-pulp cone woofer that delivers rich tonal depth, lifelike vocals, and instrumentation across genres.
A custom-engineered driver layout and meticulous phase calibration create a wide, holographic soundstage, while the overall design emphasizes balance and immersion without distortion—even at higher volumes.
Eversolo’s new SE100 is the perfect match for their Play streamer and nearly any system in any room, especially offices, dorm rooms, bedrooms, and other limited space environments, said Roger Fortier, VP and Director of Sales at Forte Distribution. In addition to outstanding performance for the size and price, it looks so good that music-lovers are placing it in spaces where it can be admired from anywhere in the room.
Play streaming amplifier
The SE100 is particularly well-suited to Eversolo’s Play streaming amplifier—an all-in-one compact unit featuring a high-fidelity DAC, Class D amplification (60W × 2 at 8Ω / 110W × 2 at 4Ω), a 5.5-inch touchscreen interface, and support for major streaming services, high-res formats, and room correction. Available with or without a built-in CD transport, the Play turns the SE100 into a complete, high-end yet approachable desktop or small-room hi-fi system.
