You might look at the weirdly named (the clue) speaker from Sjofn HiFi. Just heard them at the New York Audio and AV show and they were a standout. They're small and designed to go against the wall, and if I'm not mistaken they're around $1000 - a huge bargain.
Small wall-mount speaker recommendations?
I'd like to mount a pair of small speakers in a somewhat awkward situation. They'll be on a wall at the edge of a sort of loft - too complicated to describe - providing music to a fairly large area with complex geometry. I don't need high volume, and if speakers are pushed for bass, can always add a subwoofer. So - a bookshelf-type speaker, can't be rear-ported, as thin as possible front-to-back (10" would be nice) and no more than 16" high.
I very much prefer the uncolored sound of British monitors - IMF and B&W from the transmission-line days, and so forth - not so much the AV sound now more common.
Budget: as far below $1000 as possible, used OK. The few real hifi stores remaining around here have very limited selection for listening, or are priced way out of reach, so might have to buy unheard. Suggestions appreciated.
