my little Tivoli radio sounds so very good outclassing several highly touted bookshelves. Henry Kloss (bless his soul) knew something that other designers did not. The little 3 inch driver outperforms my regular speakers. I play the sources thru Aux. I place it vertically. Even the FM is quite good.
I am thinking of getting a very good 3 inch full range (not the right term but good enough) and building a well designed cabinet. Perhaps it will be musical like the radio and better than bigger ones.
