The best speaker for a small room...at any price point.


I am wondering which would your choice for the best sounding speaker in a small dedicated room..say 10'X11', or maybe up to 11'X13'? Assuming that budget was not a factor!

I'd suggest GIK Acoustics. Great advice, and extremely high value products.
Let me add a little more on GIK. The remote sound technician that designed my room panels, via telephone and photos told me to contact him in the future if I needed further assistance.

I am going to buy new speakers for my small home office. I wanted to get the Vivid Kiya 45 floor standers but was under the impression it would not work in my space, especially before the treatments. My current treatments were based on the KEF LS50’s. These Vivid speakers have side firing woofers and in a small room that does not seem a good idea.

I got feedback from Vivid on the speakers dispersion characteristics and I passed this info to my GIK tech. He and I were able to determine that these speakers would work, no charge for that advice and no extra GIK panel purchases needed. Huge fan of GIK.
Used to own vivid giya g3 on a 10 by 14 room, it was a mess.
side firing woofer was like having a run away subwoofer doing
their own thing. Owned vivid v1.5 twice; a much better match
to my room, which i eventually replaced with a wilson sasha 2
because i miss the larger voicing given by a fullrange speakers.

@supermerio Thanks for that feedback. I may have to send you a message to ask some questions. I need to first compare the G3 to the Kaya 45.

I also have 2nd bigger room (odd shaped) that my wife is saying it would be nice to have music in.
G3 is much better than the kaya 45. Bigger more “ meat to
the bone” mids, better dynamics. Everything is better except
to my ears the kaya 45 has a more silent cabinet.
