The Neat Iotas (which I have no commercial affilation with whatsoever) are simply brilliant speakers if you're short of space. I tested them at home last year - couldn't believe how good they sound for their size. And here they are in white:

I'm not sure they don't look a bit blue in that light.

Nah, hedgehogs have remarkably poor eyesight.

Surely the logical upgrade from DB1i's if you wish to go DSP active would be the PMC TWO TWO 5's .
They only come in midnight blue but they are amazing apparently, although I have not heard a pair .

Some truth in that I suppose and beauty is in the eye of the beholder but I have seen far worse
The PMC logo lights up too
Pretty rough looking.
Though, as the quoted price is ex VAT I doubt PMC consider these to be an at home speaker.
Going to listen to some Beolab 9 s next couple of weeks.

I think "rough looking" is a bit harsh in fact I quite like the style :shifty: .
There is some serious dsp based technology inside that makes them adjustable for different placement and acoustics and there is the bonus of being able to use them on their sides in tight spaces , just add the digital or analogue source of your choice .
They are aimed at the professional market but PMC do sell them through HiFi dealers too .

A bit tongue n cheek. Just a comment on how they look. They've been nominated for an award by Resolution. I follow PMC on FB.
Ive not heard any speakers that might be considered as competition for the ADM40s. I pretty much dislike the looks of every speaker out there, but I think the Beolab 9s look great (I don't like the 5s).
Im not seriously thinking about any change, but it would be nice to have a comparison of sorts.

Have a look at Backes and Muller (I think). They make active speakers (according to the German hifi mags) that are meant to knock other speakers into a cocked hat. They also look good.

Or their English website here: http://www.backesmueller.de/bm/en/index.htm.
Any idea of a price level, AL? I hope I'm wrong, but it all looks über-expensive...
Their site and the few others don't mention price
but I found another site that said the top model is 100,000 euros. Mind you I prefer the looks of the (cheaper) Prime speakers. They're probably still more expensive than my car.

Top of the line a paltry 56000 euros, small change for the great JD
Also found these on the same website: http://www.nubert.de/nupro-a-20/p932/?category=78 . They're about £500 a pair and in the Stereoplay 100 best speakers in the world, if that means anything.
