I'm glad you've found it beneficial. Note that not all of them are available in the US, and I added some purely for the amusement factor, but the vast majority are legit.

I thought that I should add that I went with the EbenLee Mini Cube speakers. Just ordered them yesterday. I was dead set on the orbs still I found this thread and those speakers.

I own the EbenLee MiniCube 2's and ELA-3 subwoofer, both of which I helped design. Let me know what you think of them after 20-30 hours; they do take a while to break in.

I have listened to these speakers for about 15 hours. They are, simply put, amazing and exactly what I was looking for; a very small speaker, with very big sound. I am still amazed at the sound they put out. Even my wife said they sound really good and very crisp. I think EbenLee and Peter really have something here. Too bad they are not very well known as I am sure more people are or have been in the same situation as me.

Thanks again for this tread.

I'm glad they worked out for you. I've found the detail and clarity to be exemplary. The volume surprised me as well - the MC2's can play very loud.

Fixed a ton of broken links too. Seems as though quite a number of manufacturers have been busy changing their websites lately...

Full-range...understood.
But why look at smaller drivers?

I grew up listening to 8" dual cone full range driver and it was awesome. Of course not good for sub levels.

The only reason was because that was my preference. I was merely looking for speakers to work in a small HT system.

That's just a driver though. This thread is dedicated to speakers - finished units, essentially.

I mentioned the Vifa because for all practical applications, the speaker cabinet for such a small speaker cannot (should not be) complex. Maybe just place it in a coffee mug and it should work

Regarding indoor/outdoor speakers: I have Boston acoustics 381's I think in my living room wall and they sound great, paid 350 for them 20 years ago and they sound better than just about any bookshelfs in that price range. Being weatherproof is only a plus for an in wall speaker in New England.

Thanks Bazzy. I have a list of new speakers to add to this thread, and the One is indeed among them. Seems awfully expensive, but I would like to hear them nonetheless. wink.gif
