...but the Denon/Mission mini sounded best to me. They might still be available, worth a look.

The speakers were made of real wood, had real binding posts and most importantly - (drum roll, please...) sounded a bit more "true". If you can demo, I believe you'll understand what I mean. Check out your local mass-market store...

Oh - the speakers a detachable, this flexibility can result in a reasonable soundstage.

Just an idea, if available...
