#70 Role Audio Skiff: $495 per pair Role Audio eBay

Pros: Extremely compact US-made sealed cabinets with a crossoverless full-range driver, simple eight-ohm load and five-year warranty. Current direct pricing includes shipping and the design can disappear into a desktop or small room.

Cons: The local Spinorama score is -0.98 raw and only 3.11 with a subwoofer, with 128Hz measured extension, the weakest objective performance in this batch. Narrow bandwidth and uneven response make it a niche space-saving choice.

How it compares: Just above it: Q Acoustics 3020i - $180 cheaper, 2Hz lower bass extension (-3dB). Just below it: Zaph Audio ZA5.2 TM - $112 cheaper, 6Hz lower bass extension (-3dB).
