Energy Loudspeakers manufactures some good bookshelf monitors at reasonable prices. I had a pair of the Take 5's for a while. No bass but good for a 2nd pair in a small office or for surrounds. They have a C-100, C-50, and RC-Mini that will fit your space requirements. I was going to suggest the Proac Tablette 8 Ref speakers which will fit in your space but they are a very high priced speaker line out of the UK. Even their small units are way up there. B&W produces some mini-monitors such as the LM-1 and M-1. I have 3 of the M-1's as my surrounds and center channel. Super sound but again, no bass. The M-1's I believe sell for $200.00/each.
Need advise regarding small bookshelf monitor
Looking for recommendations on a small bookshelf monitor that is no wider than 8 inches and no taller than 13 inches. They will fit in an entertainment center & be used primarily for classical listening. I ran across EPOS ELS-3's while searching -- I see these are highly regarded/recommended. Any other suggestions or feedback on the EPOS' would be appreciated.
