#11 Aalto Speakers Aalto 1 EVO: €599 per pair Aalto Speakers eBay
Same family: the Aalto Speakers Aalto 3 Passive (larger bookshelf, rated 4.2/5), the Aalto Speakers Aalto 3 Active Pro (larger bookshelf, rated 4.7/5) and the Aalto Speakers Aalto 9 (floorstanding, rated 4.7/5).
Pros: Excellent local Spinorama results for a very compact passive speaker: 5.92 raw and 8.25 with a subwoofer. Its redesigned crossover, waveguided titanium tweeter and controlled directivity support neutral in-room response, while the recyclable Finnish composite enclosure is unusually compact.
Cons: Low 81.5dB sensitivity and a 3.3-ohm minimum impedance demand a capable amplifier. The measured 50Hz extension is respectable for the size but a subwoofer is still strongly recommended, and US distribution is limited.
