Wanted / Recommendations: Small Bookshelf Speakers

[Robert Onion]

Hi

Looking for a pair of small bookshelf speakers, ideally around 12 to 14 (max) inches in height, in a medium wood finish with black grilles.

They will be used in a small room (3x5m) so need to have good clean bass with an open detailed sound.

Will be used with a computer & NAS based audio / DAC and a Naim Nait 5i system

Max budget is £200, happy to consider used but must be in good condition.

Many thanks

I would say have a look at the Q Acoustics 30xx series, great vfm speakers. Their Concept 20s are good aswell but only available in gloss black or white.

Checkout the Eltax monitor iii’s. They’re well thought of and you might find a bargain second hand, there’s even a Bluetooth model

I use a pair of Dali Spektor 1s - very petite, just 9 inches tall. This is in my study which is only just over 2m x 3m. I've been very pleased with these, and I like the Dali sound. Perhaps Spektor 2s might suit your slightly larger room - still within your budget, I would think.

Regard,
Geoff

New DALI Spektor 2 around £199 or less HiFi recommended , 83dB sensitivity a bit low

New Monitor Audio Bronze 2 again around £199 easier to position as front ported see https://www.whathifi.com/naim/nait-5i/review

2nd Hand Mission 771 or 771e book shelf speakers, £100 to £200.

Super thanks for the replies

If anyone has anything surplus to requirements that might fit the brief please drop me a pm

Would be happy to consider a nice pre-owned pair of speakers as well

I used to have a pair of Eltax III speakers for AV duties and can recommend them. They are available for ~ £150 on-line.

Yep, saw them looked nice in calvados (bit lighter than walnut) with black grills. Forgot to mention bi- wiring or bi- amping possible, 89dbl I believe.

I have a pair in black I’m using for tv duties
