Posting my newly acquired Monitor Audio-my little giant speaker.

I was really surprised by the performance of this little in size MA BR1 speaker, it sounded BIG for its size.

Extensions were clear (even my daughter noticed it " Daddy it sounds big").

Detail and soundstage were surprising!

I used to have a dedicated HT set-up, pero I went back to my real love "audio". I have two other audio set-up for everyday use of my family.

Now, my HT is simple na lang. Thanks
