"I guess it's a matter of trade-offs when it comes to monitor imaging and bass extension..." and size and money.

So true...budget is tight right now. Otherwise, I'd probably return to Proac Tablette or 1SC--speakers I've had great luck w/ in the past. Oh well...it is what it is...

  Either consider a bigger monitor, or else get a 2-way with a box floor stander. If you want well-articulated, smooth bass, small monitors don't do that. Not enough box. You will find these in many UK mfrs, but those that come most quickly to mind are Harbeth, Proac and Spendor. They aren't cheap. Rega has reasonable prices. So does EPOS. Thet both make floor standing 2-ways.

    Quad L series maybe? Reportedly excellent imaging and transaparency with decent bass extension with their small floorstanders.

      I really like this speaker, too, and it has good bass for a mini, but it's not what I would call well articulated, as it rolls off very gradually like the other minis.
