    A non-Hi Fi and short response, wonderful and fun ! A friend of mine has a pair, runs the with an old Audiolab 8000 something, they just put a smile of your face. I'll leave maybe more detailed responses to others, but for the money, tremendous speakers. I love the aesthetics as well.

    I liked other Royd speakers but not the Minstrel.

    Decent speakers. Top end can sound a tad hot at times. Not for high volume levels.

    Musical, fun and quite a big sound for a small speaker. Bass is tight, treble can be a little OTT but I wouldn't let that put you off.

    I thought the Minstrels good, but preferred the Eden's.

    My first pair of ‘real’ speakers back in the 90’s and absolutely loved them. They are quite special.

    I have heard them in a buddy's system -- very full-bodied sound for something so dinky, lots of fun

    Raucous and bright but fun, at the right price.

    I'd never describe Minstrels as bright. Coupled with good quality electronics they are surprisingly sophisticated. Like a lot of budget speakers, they get a bad name because of the budget electronics people usually use with them.
