EDIT: Looks like PE has two numbers transposed. They are actually about 13-1/2" tall. They are about 7-1/2" wide if you wanted to lay them down sideways.

thanks for the suggestions. I'll look into them. there is a pair of JBL control 1 minis for sale. any experience with those?

The JBL Controls are great. I use a pair on my computer system. Great on their own especially with nearfield listening, but if you pair them with even a modest Sub
The overall sound is special!

Jbl loft 40 . I use these Jbls connected to a Yamaha A S501 for TV audio . No complaints about sound ,clear dialog and decent bass . I got these from the JBL site for less than 50 bucks delivered .

I have a bedroom system that pairs Boston Acoustics A60-II (18" x 11.5" x 8") with a DefTech 200TL sub (overkill). It sounds terrific and I spent only about ~$100 total. I see A60s on CL all the time...

so i picked up a set of PSB Image B4s. they sound very nice and even but definitely lacking bass. I'm thinking of picking up a PSB Subseries 100. will this sub brong the bass to larger bookshelf levels? not expecting or needing theatere bass but just to add some low end.

Visionik David 602's.
Braun L200's.

Old Skool but pound for pound both still more than hold their own.

This. The bass that comes out of the sealed cabinets is unbelievable.

Mission MS-50 sometimes called 8VET. Bundled with Denon mini systems, pretty amazing sound for their size.
