I have also heard the Design 4's, I thought they were awesome most especially for their size - I don't think there is a non-sub speaker out there that sounds this good, or looks that good for that matter - they are unbelievable little speakers and very well finished from what I could see, beautiful wood grain laminates. I don't think you will find a better small speaker - end your search with these and I am sure you will be happy for a long time.
