Let's see or discuss your desktop speakers!


Hello,

I am very happy with my living rooms main system speakers, Von Schweikert VR4-5 towers. The image that is created by these speakers is spectacular. Having said that I want to bring higher fidelity reproduction into my home office. I've owned PSB synchrony one's in the past and they are great and all but the sound decayed too fast for my liking. But they were still great speakers and I am still a fan of PSB. 

I am looking into PSB Imagine mini speakers. How would these do as desktop speakers? They will probably be fed by a Parasound Zdac and a Zamp. I know nothing this size will compare to the VR4-5 speakers but my current audioengine desktop speakers leave more to be desired. 

Any audiophiles have good looking desktop speakers? Please feel free to post an image or let's discuss your desktops components of choice. 

Cheers.

They have unexpectedly high efficiency, and will do amazingly well with a Zamp. :) However, you must build them yourself. On the plus side, this means you have an unprecedented ability to tweak the treble balance.

Best,

I own the Audioengine 5+ speakers and I'm very impressed with them. I also use the Audioengine S8 powered subwoofer. These speakers kick some serious butt without the subwoofer. IMO the Audioengine products are worth looking into.
These speakers would please an audiophile that has a good ear for music.
Powered studio monitors from M-Audio.  A little larger than I'd prefer and not the very last word in SQ, but more than good enough for the application and very reasonably priced.
I'm very pleased with AKG K241 600Ohm headphones at my desk powered by $12 DIY USB headphone amp purchased from Alibaba.

+1 for AKG’s K series, but the difference between a solid headphone amp and mediocre is striking with them. They are not as amp friendly as I’d like, but not as bad as some IEM's either.
