Do these speakers need an amplifier?

Yes. They are passive and have no built-in amp, Bluetooth or power supply. You need an amplifier or AV receiver rated for 4-ohm loads.

The pair of speakers, mounting screw kits and 80 feet (24.4 meters) of 20-gauge oxygen-free copper speaker wire. No amplifier or cables with plugs are included.

Can I use them as surround speakers?

Yes. They work as rear or height channels in a home theater, and the wall-mount option helps place them. Check that your receiver handles 4 ohms.

How much bass do they produce?

The 3.5-inch woofer gives modest bass that suits desks and small rooms. For deep low end in a larger room, add a subwoofer.

The listing says waterproof, but the wooden cabinet and exposed drivers mean you should keep them out of rain and damp. Treat them as indoor speakers.

Our take on the Saiyin Passive Bookshelf Speakers

The Saiyin DS6700MPlus is a pair of passive bookshelf speakers: no amp, no Bluetooth, just speaker wire terminals. Each cabinet holds a 3.5-inch woofer and a tweeter in a wooden enclosure, rated 4 ohms and up to 60 watts, with a claimed response up to 20 kHz. They suit a desk, small living room or surround setup where you already own an amplifier or AV receiver. Against powered rivals they need extra gear, but the wooden cabinet, wall-mount option and included 80 feet of 20-gauge OFC wire make them a simple, flexible pick.
