Bookshelf speakers similar size to Ruark Mr1

[Beans on toast Dave]

Hi
have been looking for some Ruark Mr1s but none have come up
so as an alternative what can you recommend about the same size
they need to be small and wall mountable


thanks

The Ruarks really are tiny. The closest I can think of from the top of my head would be Monitor Audio Radius 90 / R90 / R90HD, but of course they're passive.

 

[Yaayuh!]

Tannoy Gold 5?

edit: Scrap that, didn’t realise how small the Ruarks are.

those monitor audio look nice, can be passive just need to buy a tiny amp too

I've been looking at exactly the same type of speakers - size-wise.
There was a post in GD where someone had bought some Kanto Yu2 which are a similar size (much cheaper).
Could also try Audioengine A2+ but they aren't for sale anywhere that I've seen, also cheaper.

edit: FYI @Beans on toast Dave
Just seen the Ruarks on Sevenoaks:

So, how are those Ruarks?
I'm after similar size speakers and thinking of those Ruarks now.

have been well impressed with them for the size the sound is quite impressive
with more bass than i thought they would have

Cool, thanks for confirming.
