Hi all,
Long time watcher but brand new poster here. I'm in the US and looking for a great set of mini monitors for my home office which is quite small. I've looked at the following speakers so far, and was wondering if there's anything else out there that should be on my short list. Mini Monitors seem to be hard to audition in the us for some reason, so I might have to buy unheard and take my chances. Just so everyone knows, my definition of mini is about 12x10x10" but the smaller they get the higher the wife acceptance factor is, so there's a benefit to something smaller.
Harbeth P3ESR - Really liked there
Leema Xero's - Liked these
PSB mini's - Didn't really find these very engaging
Spendor S3/5R2 - Haven't gotten a chance to audition yet but look promising
The recent ones I saw online that looked interested that I wondered if anyone knew about were the T+A CS Mini's, they appear to be made from aluminum and are super small, but look pretty impressive from what little I've seen of them. T+A isn't common in the US at all, so perhaps someone has heard them. I'm also a big Linn fan, so I was looking at the Kiko, but it doesn't appear to be around much at all yet.
Thanks for all your opinions as they are most appreciated,
Steve
