could find.
If you've ever
wondered what a real audiophile loudspeaker would sound like if you
could shrink it down enough to fit it on your desktop... then add one to the shopping cart now - while you can still find out!
These
small
speakers
have
been
especially
designed
for your desktop to give
you the following:
- Reference
sound quality similar to the speakers in your listening room.
- Great imaging
that can make your computer monitor disappear.
- No wall
effect or boominess thanks to a hidden down firing slot that puts bass
on your desktop, not your wall.
- Compatibility
with any amplifier, tube or solid state.
- Efficiency
that can easily be driven to loud levels with only 2 watts.
- Longevity
made possible by real wood cabinets and hi-quality audiophile drivers.
- Great bass performance that gives you a full
rich sound without having to use a sub woofer!
The
Trapezium
design
was the result of lots of testing in the unique
environment of the desktop, where often there is a wall directly behind
the speakers. The speaker breaks the parallel surface bond
between it and the wall with it's trapezoidal shape. This breaks
up standing waves both inside and outside of the cabinet to prevent
boomy bass and preserve clarity in the mid-range.
The
cabinet
is
designed around this high quality 4 inch wide range driver
from VIFA
We mention that it has no boomy bass, and you're probably thinking it has no bass. Ha! It has all you would want if you're interested in flat extended audiophile frequency balance. No sub woofer is required or suggested with this pair of speakers.

Performance
"To
test
these
little jewels I did the same thing I do with all our
speakers and took them into our 17' x 27' cathedral listening
space, put them on some stands and listened to them.
They
were
full,
rich and glass smooth. The sound was not small,
the
imaging
was
wonderful
and the speakers had no issues filling the room while powered by 6
watts of Single Ended Triode magic. The bass was frankly amazing,
no sub needed to make these sound full!
Of
course
on
your desktop, the near-field positioning would make 2 watts
more power than you could likely use."
