    Small speakers?

    Anyone know where I can get reasonable sounding small speakers (with mounts) for a bedroom wall?

    I saw some JBLs recently....



    These look similar... but don't look too tasty.

    ... They have to be smaller than Mission M70

    For hi-fi speakers, my first port of call is usually www.richersounds.co.uk, then double check the prices on kelkoo etc. In any case, you will probably have to get the mounts seperatly. eBay is always worth a look to.

    richersounds will probably have a reasonable selection in this sorta price range.. i'd have thought that if you go any smaller than those missions you'll really start loosing bottom end as the bass driver will be fairly small..

    They are only to go in a bedroom - so nothing major needed

    B&W produces very good high quality speakers, may be slightly higher than your price range although they sound very impressive (although now discontinued) the B&W miniPOD speakers. Maybe eBay or I found http://www.stoneaudio.co.uk/default....sp?product=379 ...

    They do another small series of speakers still in production called the B&W LM1 - slightly more speaker looking as well

    G4 PowerMac - Tiger 10.4 - 512MB RAM
    MacBook - 2Ghz - 1GB RAM - 120GB HDD

    Rotel RC970BX | DBX DriveRack |2x Rotel RB850
    B&W DM640i | Velodyne 1512

    I didn't set a price I don't want them to break the bank just a reasonable set of speakers

    I know about B&W Speakers - I have some 602s already

    The main requirements are size - and also that they can be easily and tidyly wall mounted

    Monitor Audio Radius R45. very cool and dinky. probably more than you want to spend though. Spotted them in the local Sevenoaks.

    no idea how both these sound, but they are small and look good
