MSX 10 (White, MINX MIN 12)

I purchased two of these Minx Min 12 speakers as surround along with their bigger cousin, the Minx Min 22, for the front, centre and right speakers. These replaced some very old 10-watt speakers I had on my home theatre setup: a Pioneer VSX-921 AV receiver and a Yamaha 8-inch subwoofer. I thought my previous setup sounded good, but what an improvement these are. The sound experience is truly immersive. For small speakers coupled with a subwoofer, they are imposing. I bought these because I wanted conspicuous speakers that produce good sound. You do not notice them as they blend in with the living room furniture, but when listening to a movie, you notice the sound they produce. Almost as if the sound is not emanating from anywhere. I am pleased with these Cambridge Audio speakers. Similar-sized and quality speakers on the market are much more expensive.

The speakers (I bought 2) seem very well made, although only a week in use. They provide a surprisingly rich sound for their small size. I would recommend the wall brackets for mounting. The simple slotted bracket for one screw they come with would be very tricky to get right on a wall I think. The swivel brackets add ease and flexibility.

Perfect as a sattelite speaker in a surround sound system. Small, inobtrusive yet makes itself heard

I bought these hoping they would be sufficient for my small office. They sound great but are really for satellite use with a subwoofer. I hoped they would suffice, but they did not. Returned.

After deciding that having big speakers all around my small living room was probably overkill, I bought these as satellite surround speakers and put the Q Acoustic 3020i speakers I had been using away. I made sure I’d changed the crossover on my amp to 150hz for the rear channels, cranked up the volume and stuck on an Atmos soundtrack film. It was like I still had the larger speakers in place. I was completely dumbfounded as to how great and powerful they sounded. Am going to buy two more to replace my ceiling speakers.

Great little speakers. The speakers are only about the size of a rubik's cube so can be placed almost anywhere, but because of the size, pair them with a good subwoofer to get a full sound stage.

For the price paid these are a cosmetic novelty, they are small cute speakers which don't catch much attention, which is a plus. But sadly they do not, and can not deliver a bold sound and are really best suited for quiet ambient music, background music, or as rears for a very small home theatre system. They just don't have the reach to be musically interesting, I played around with them at length to try and squeeze more out of them, as I don't need them to be loud I figured I could just bump the mid frequencies a little and feed them a bit more power, sadly they just don't have the finesse. Similarly, just being ambitious and setting the crossover fairly high and letting them sing leads to a bit of a mess, they can go loud, but there's no midrange at all, so these are just all hiss and no bark and just sound feeble compared to almost anything. I'm sure you'd get a better sound if you grabbed one of the Minx subs, but I don't like the idea of a subwoofer filling in midrange frequencies for satellites. Given that I have bluetooth speakers no larger than a Minx 12 that outclass it both in bass extension, volume, utility, it's honestly hard to recommend this.

I bought a pair of these as surround sound speakers for my Denon AV amp. I had heard of Cambridge Audio and new they made good kit but most was out of my price range, but needing small speakers these fit the ticket and were very reasonably priced. The quality and sound is superb for the role I'm using them for, they are almost inconspicuous but punch way above their side. I teamed them with the stands, which I got from the CA website direct and they look very cool. I also bought their larger relation as a centre speaker and equally pleased. For the money and function I am using them for they are awesome, and I'd guess they make great little speakers generally too. Can't recommend enough.

Mira que tenemos altavoces por casa y con los únicos que se sorprende el gato es con estos, aunque suenen flojito. Lo más importante del sonido es que lo que escuchamos esté bien grabado, eso lo primero y lo segundo es la calidad de los altavoces. Estos altavoces son unos de los mejores que he escuchado nunca (y he trabajado con sonido durante muchos años), el sonido que tienen es muy nítido y neutral, no esta coloreado, se acerca mucho a como suenan unos buenos auriculares, los sonidos que están grabados flojitos en segundo plano salen a la luz, las voces, sobre todo las femeninas ponen los pelos de gallina. Los altavoces normales de dos vías tienen el filtro de corte por donde están más o menos las voces y esto añade distorsión al sonido. Yo los tengo junto con unos altavoces (que son muy buenos) para los graves, he aprovechado un amplificador que tenía en el trastero y un ecualizados para el filtro de graves (crossover), estoy muy feliz con estos altavoces. Lástima que tengo vecinos y no los puedo poner muy fuerte !

Verwendung als Surround Lautsprecher. Für die Größe beachtlich...

BUEN PRODUCTO MUY RECOMENDABLE

Perfect

Utilizzate come satelliti per home theatre 5.1. Consigliate, il suono è buono e potente; sorprende il design e la compattezza. Non utilizzatele come casse frontali dal momento che i bassi sono inesistenti (arrivano sino ad un minimo di 150Hz).
