Thank you everyone for all the great references. Each one has its intriguing aspects, sound signature, size, timber, price point, etc. The small speaker world is completely new for me, just wish there was some way to actually listen to one. Perhaps I'll try an audio show soon. 

@soix in every thread you respond to, you are always helpful in trying to bring out more info from the OP in order to give better advice. But, man, you have a great sense of humor and had me rolling on the floor with your divorce humor in this particular thread. 😂

Humm, hadn't thought of divorce as an option but think it might be a tad more expensive.

I think you answered your question.  TAD EVOLUTION. 

OP, beware.... ;)

"Did either of you consider divorce at any time when the going 'got rough'?

He clammed up....She got thoughtful for a moment.....

"Divorce....no.  Murder....Yes"
