Jamo R909? It's not a box, not small though.

Shame there's not a slightly more miniature version...... Wink

Sad to say, open baffle speakers (which have an awful lot going for them) depend on a wide baffle. I'd love a pair of the Jamos if I had space. In fact, when I retire, one of my projects will be to build some OB speakers, just for the hell of it.  Smile

I would love to try the G3 (assuming thats the smallest one).

I think they look amazing, but they're outside my price bracket new, and are super rare second hand.

G4 is the smallest , but IMHO the G3 is the best "all rounder"
hifishark has a g3 2nd hand at $9500 .. but I think thats a mistake or a scam

the K1/b1 is also a consideration.. but the looks might not appeal

Thanks Rodney. I think I measured up that the G4 would be the only workable solution, but the shapes are so unusual that depending on the colour maybe the G3 would work. All a bit academic as the G3's definitely out of my budget, and like you say when they do come up the ads mostly look a bit dodgy like the one in your link….. Wink
