Is this a new trend?

@pkatsuleas I had to kick in a little cash to make it work 

I have 13 pair of bookshelf’s that I rotate as I get bored. Cant do that with floorstanders nor would I have the space. 

I just love a quality stand mount 2 way speaker. Always have.

viridian has it.  
Besides, how many ONLY listen through their phone with earbuds and call it really awesome!  EVERYTHING, and I do mean EVERYTHING is now a passive activity. If you are eating, watching sports on mute whilst streaming music in the background while you surf the web, which of these activities need be of great quality?  Judges?  None.  And we wonder why half of the public is ADHD?

I also like a great sounding 2 way stand mount.   I just picked up a pair of Studio Electric M4  for my bedroom system.  Damn ! They are a great speaker !   

They exceeded my expectations,  my search for a small speaker is over.
