Hi -- I am thrilled by the desktop speakers I have been using for about three years. They are Audience Clairaudient "The One" speakers, and are only about 7" high x 7" deep x 5.5" width. They are single drivers so throw a great soundstage at a short distance.
The are not incredibly efficient at 84 dB, but will be easily driven by your amp at late-night listening volumes.
Clairaudient also has upgraded versions with the V2 designation. And it makes the slightly larger 1+1 desktop speaker that is many an audiophile reviewers’ desktop/mini speaker reference. Both have won several awards.Â
I find them truly small enough to be a desktop or bookshelf speaker with excellent dynamics and a non-fatiguing sound. Worth a no-risk audition.
