I'm looking into the possibility of mounting speakers behind an acoustically transparent projector screen, but I have the following limitations:
Room size: 3m x 5m
Budget: Up to £1000 per speaker
Candidates I have identified so far:
- The speakers can't go in the wall, so they need to be an on-wall design.
- The space behind the screen is very limited, so I want the slimmest design possible (ideally less than 10cm)
- The speakers will be used at least as much for music as movies, so they need to provide reasonable hi-fi performance. My alternative is to mount traditional speakers with good vertical dispersion (e.g. KEF LS50s) below the screen, so that would be the benchmark I'm looking to approach.
Room size: 3m x 5m
Budget: Up to £1000 per speaker
Candidates I have identified so far:
- Lyngdorf MH-2/MH-3 (do these really need a Lyngdorf boundary sub to work well, or would they be ok with the SB3000?)
- MK M70
- MK MP950
- Monitor Audio SoundFrame
- KEF T-301 (although I've pretty much discounted these on the basis that some reviews say they are poor for music)
- Tribe Totem II (only in-budget if I can find some second-hand)
