Optimal Audio Cuboid 3 - ranked #31 of 33 Line Array and Installation PA Speakers · Editor's rating 2.3/5

#31 Optimal Audio Cuboid 3: $85 each eBay

Same family: the Optimal Audio Cuboid 5 (larger model, ranked higher, rated 2.5/5).

Pros: A tiny installation speaker from Optimal Audio with a 3” driver. Optimal Audio’s measurements show a preference score of -0.18 that reaches 3.43 with an ideal subwoofer, with 0.82 listening window deviation.

Cons: Bass is very limited, so it needs a subwoofer, and the on-axis response is very uneven (2.07 average deviation). That data is low quality and comes from Optimal Audio. Bass reaches 115.0Hz (-3dB) and about 82Hz (-10dB). That data is low quality.

Related speakers: Optimal Audio Cuboid 5.
