good, small speakers

hi folks,

i'm currently looking to replace my ages-old spica sc's. my problem is that i live in a tiny nyc studio, so i need small speakers that aren't so fussy about placement. my current hardware is a linn classik (again, space is serious consideration -- did i mention "tiny studio?").

i loved the old pyramid met 7's; does anyone have experience with the new met 7.7 mk v's? how about the linn katans (the top end of size considerations) or kans? any other suggestions for small speakers which'll work well with the classik? price isn't as much of a consideration as size and forgiving limited placement options.

thanks,

rob

hi everyone,

thanks for all your recommendations, i'm making a list and checking on all these various options. a couple of items to clarify my situation further:

when i say "tiny studio" that means less than 400 square feet for me, the cat, 2 bikes, bed, sofa, etc. i truly mean tiny studio!

and the sad part of that is this means the speakers will probably be forced against a wall on stands (if i'm lucky) or onto bookshelves (if i'm not).

i've been reading some of the reviews of speakers already mentioned above, and i think some of them will have to be skipped in my listening test because the reviews specifically state the speakers suffer when too close to a wall. :-(

but please keep your recommendations coming!

rob

p.s. anyone got some used kans, katans, or met 7s they want to sell? :-)
