    Well, guys in a group usually compare length, but here goes:
    Audio Physic Tempo V - 14.5cm
    Yamaha NS-1000M - 37.5cm
    Monitor Audio GS-10 - 20.5cm

    Is it a coincidence that the sonically most "disappearing" speakers are the Audio Physic?

    It seems like some people like the sound of cabinet diffraction, but as others have mentioned, it achieves the opposite of making the speakers 'disappear'. Exception is open baffles as the open backs cancel out diffraction at the cabinet edges.
