FWIW, while I love the looks of the Estelon Aura, keep in mind that it is bottom firing, not bottom ported. The woofer is facing downwards, so it generates a lot of bass toward the floor which also dissipates to the rear of the speaker. It is recommended that the Aura are also placed quite a distance from the walls, or else it will sound boomy and muffled. A number of the reviews cover this. Many of the speakers being recommended are not paying attention to your room and living constraints.
