Do you know of small speakers that sound ''BIG'' ?

I was wondering if anyone has heard of small or monitor speakers that defy perception by sounding larger or bigger than they are ? I have always owned floorstanders and do not have much experience with the smaller fry....for the sake of discussion I would like that we NOT include small floorstanders - just speakers that we would normally use a stand with. Thanks !

JT,

I love Mdhoovers enthusiasm. I have not heard the Summits yet, but I did own a pair of Essence Super Gems for about 12 years. They were an unbelievable speaker in 1990 and I have heard from many that the Summits are many times better.

I live in Minnesota near the Magnaplaner factory. I remember back in the 1990s, Magnapan actually ran an ad saying that they had the 2nd best sound at the Chicago CES.

Guess who won best sound?

Essence Speakers.

I can't wait to get a pair of summits myself. If they are even 15% better thant the Super Gems, they would be worth it.

"So....WHY THE HECK AREN'T SOME OF THESE "many" PEOPLE POSTING to the forums?????? I feel so, so, so.........ALONE!"

I'm not quite sure, but I understand how you feel.

I should also point out for full disclosure that I'm hoping to become a full fledge dealer of Intuitive Design speakers.

This is totally based on my enjoyment on the Super Gems all of those years. I proactively contacted Intuitive to inquire about a dealership.
