#18 Fluid Audio C35BT: $139 per pair Amazon eBay

Pros: Balanced TRS inputs, Bluetooth, front volume control and a headphone output make this inexpensive pair practical for a basic desktop setup. ASR’s measured -3dB point is about 78Hz, so it covers more upper bass than the shallowest-reaching mini speakers.

Cons: Preference scores of 1.80 standalone and 4.79 with an ideal subwoofer indicate that the limitations are not just missing bass. Listening-window narrow-band deviation of 0.555 and sound-power deviation of 0.657 show that response irregularities affect both direct and room-reflected sound. A subwoofer cannot correct those tonal problems, and the small drivers are not a basis for expecting high clean output.

How it compares: Just above it: Mackie CR3-X - $39 cheaper, 14W less output power. Just below it: Fiio SP3 - $161 more, 24W less output power.
