#43 Onkyo GX-30ARC: $349/pair Onkyo eBay
Pros: A compact powered pair with unusually complete connectivity: HDMI ARC, USB-C, optical, phono/line, aux and Bluetooth 5.3. Erin’s data predicts a 5.55 score with a subwoofer, low 0.091 on-axis roughness and useful 62Hz in-room extension.
Cons: The response rises about +0.48dB per octave and narrows vertically, while directivity-index consistency is a mediocre 3.84. Its 0.232 sound-power smoothness suggests some room-response unevenness, and low bass still benefits from a subwoofer.
How it compares: Just above it: Klipsch The Fives - $350 more. Just below it: Pioneer DJ VM-50 - $180 cheaper.
