Conclusions

A simple, yet stunning compact bookshelf speaker that sounds larger than it looks. There was enough bass when mounted on my desk that I needed no subwoofer for music playback. These speakers deliver clean and clear sound, and are on the forward side of the fence. They sound their best when mated with a warmer amplifier. I found them out of there element in a large room that required moving away from boundaries as they benefit in the bass department from some reinforcement. When mounted near field on my desk without a subwoofer, the bass was more than adequate. Not my first choice for high-spl rock and metal, as they do not cover up recording flaws at all and can get fatiguing with ugly albums, they were delightfully revealing with more refined music.

Port placement...
written by cwnyc , May 01, 2009

I just like to point out the reason why other manufacturers place open ports on any surface of the speaker cabinet, even the bottom cleared by feet, and place only place passive radiators and not open ports on top of the speaker cabinets: To prevent all sorts of things from falling into the speaker cabinet interior! What happens to any open vases or glasses those are left out in the open for a long time? Pretty soon they are all filled with debris and dirt, and that is why we have lids for these open top devices!


Port placement

Dirt and debris can be problematic, but it is an issue that has been thought through. It can be rectified with a simple mesh grill, which fits in the flared opening of the port. The design is non-restricting and can be added or removed as desired.
