#82 Monitor Audio Apex A10: $1,698 per pair Amazon Crutchfield eBay
Pros: Compact aluminum-cabinet speaker with a 5.5-inch RST woofer, C-CAM gold-dome tweeter, front HiVe II port and included wall bracket. ASR data shows good 0.153 on-axis smoothness and a 5.92 preference score when crossed to a subwoofer. Measured bass extension of 95.2Hz (-3dB).
Cons: Measured bass extension is only 79Hz and the raw preference score drops to 2.75 without a subwoofer, making one effectively mandatory. The +0.53dB/octave slope is bright-leaning, predicted in-room smoothness is poor at 0.161, and $849/pair is expensive for the measured performance.
