good, small speakers

hi folks,

i'm currently looking to replace my ages-old spica sc's. my problem is that i live in a tiny nyc studio, so i need small speakers that aren't so fussy about placement. my current hardware is a linn classik (again, space is serious consideration -- did i mention "tiny studio?").

i loved the old pyramid met 7's; does anyone have experience with the new met 7.7 mk v's? how about the linn katans (the top end of size considerations) or kans? any other suggestions for small speakers which'll work well with the classik? price isn't as much of a consideration as size and forgiving limited placement options.

thanks,

rob

Hey Rob,

Check out the Jean Marie Reynaud line of speakers. I have an HT set up consisting a pair of Trentes, front L+R, Grand Ecran, center, and the Twin MkIII in the rear. I feel that you could not go wrong with either the Trentes or the Twin MkIII for a small room. I love the Trentes as my front speakers. They are very dynamic but also very smooth in the mids and highs and, being a transmission line speaker, they go surprisingly low for a monitor. I've not used the Twin MkIII as my front speakers but I've heard them in a friends system and they are very good for a speaker that retails for $980 brand new.............John
