By accident I stumbled upon an amazing little system. A neighbor threw away a Polk PSW-10 sub and I scored a pair of Definitive technology ProCinema 600 mini satellite speakers on Facebook for free. I setup the 600's on 24" stands in a Quasi near field 2.1 config, well away from walls, with the Polk. This combo is considerably more musical dynamic and clean sounding than any of my other speakers (with and without the sub)
The little speakers are sealed and do not suffer from box coloration that the others do. The speakers just disappear. There is much less distortion caused by their small rigid cabinets.
