What speaker could safely be ordered without hearing it first?

@mtbiker29 as a fellow phan, love the whole vibe of the room, and those speakers definitely don't look too big!  Congrats 

In the spirit of your original question, the only speakers I've ever bought unheard were the Dynaudio Heritage Specials (in thumbnail pic). I've had a pair of Contour 1.8ii for over 20 years and have been so happy I bought the HS almost out of appreciation for the brand. I absolutely love the way they sound and I'll never sell them.  Listening to the Bakers dozen right now. Also looking forward to the free webcast this Friday and Saturday for the Spac flood relief shows!  I have a Lytmi backlight system for my TV where I have the 1.8's paired with the Contour center.  The backlighting makes home concert viewing amazing since you catch the light show in scale. I highly recommend LED's + music.  The bedroom has a Govee setup. 

ghdprentice,

I ordered the Clarisys Minuet. Hopefully, I will have them soon. Maybe this week, but probably next week.

@perkadin thanks man.  That shot doesn't show the signed Trey poster off to the right!  Now that i've adjusted to them they fit in quite nicely, but took a couple days to get used to.  Oh and BTW they are sublime thus far.  One thing I did notice is just how deep vertically the soundstage is now vs. what I had prior.  I'm not sure if that's because the tweeter is 8" or more above the ear, but man it's working for me thus far.  I need to keep tweaking toe in....having friends over tonight to debut and will get their opinions.

Congratulations. They look amazing. Can’t wait to hear about them.

I really hope these sound as good as the reviews say, it was definitely a stretch for me financially. ozzy
