The little speakers that could
Experience extraordinary power and sonic refinement from incredibly small speakers. The Minx S212 system was designed for hi-fi sound on a low-fi budget, and will instantly fill your room with a tonal quality that has to be heard to be believed. You'll be blown away by the accuracy, detail, and realism from the two tiny satellite speakers that measure just 3" cubed. The matching 200-watt subwoofer measures just 9" cubed, delivering awesome results without eating into your living space. Whether you're looking to maximize your music or movie experience or add depth to your favorite TV shows and sports, the Minx S212 is waiting to show you what you've been missing.

Ultra-compact satellite speakers engineered with passion
The two Minx Min 10 satellite speakers included with this system were carefully designed and tested at Cambridge Audio's London facility by a team fueled with a passion for incredible sound. They completely rewrite the rulebook of what's possible from miniature speakers thanks to BMR (Balanced Mode Radiator) technology. BMR drivers use a flat speaker surface that combines the traditional "pistonic" movement of speaker cones with a "bending-wave" movement to create sound. It's what allows the Minx Min 10s to produce a much wider frequency response than comparably sized speakers. You'll also experience a much broader sound dispersion across your entire room, for the most enveloping sound imaginable. Plus, the compact, acoustically damped cabinets offer extreme rigidity, so you hear pure, clean sound no matter how intense your movies get.

Awesome bass from a hideaway sub
The matching Minx X200 subwoofer uses a 6-1/2" forward firing driver made of a single piece of super strong, aerospace-grade aluminum for amazing punch and attack. It's paired with dual passive radiators that add some serious mid-bass boost. Cambridge Audio's software engineers specially designed the sophisticated Digital Signal Processor (DSP) in this sub, allowing it to pump out sensational bass from such a compact enclosure. You may even be fooled into thinking the X200 is several times its size.

Speakers that fit your lifestyle
Quite naturally, you want your speakers to fit into your home, rather than designing your living space around your system. That's why the compact Minx Min 10 satellites can be mounted to your wall, placed on stands, or positioned on a tabletop using optional hardware. You can mix and match between other Minx speakers by adding additional Minx Min 10 speakers or the larger Minx Min 20 models to create a 3.1-, 5.1-, or even a 7.1-channel system to meet your needs.
