Canton Plus MX Satellite Speakers – Gloss Black Finish, Tested and Working Well, Two Pairs Available
Experience ultra-compact German precision with the Canton Plus MX satellite speakers—tiny yet remarkably dynamic speakers from one of Germany’s most respected loudspeaker manufacturers. Fully tested and working well, these satellites deliver detailed, articulate sound in a sleek, space-saving package. Available in two pairs (four satellites total) in elegant high-gloss black finish.
The Canton Plus MX satellites are exceptionally compact at 4.5 inches tall × 3.5 inches wide × 3.9 inches deep (115 × 90 × 100mm), making them ideal for discreet mounting on shelves, walls, or optional floor stands. Despite their diminutive size, these two-way closed speakers pack impressive performance with a 15mm aluminum dome tweeter and 80mm (3-inch) polypropylene woofer—delivering clarity, speed, and dynamics that belie their tiny footprint.
German Engineering Excellence:
Canton was founded in 1972 by four German hi-fi enthusiasts with the goal of manufacturing the best speakers in their class—and the Plus MX embodies that philosophy. The satellites feature sophisticated driver technology ensuring precision acoustic performance in a micro package designed for serious music and home theater applications.
The curved, high-gloss black cabinets with perforated metal grilles give these speakers a refined, modern aesthetic that complements any décor. The satellites are magnetically shielded, making them safe for placement near CRT TVs or sensitive electronics.
Sound Performance:
The Plus MX satellites deliver detailed, lively sound with fast transient response and remarkable clarity across the frequency range. The sealed cabinet design ensures controlled, accurate bass reproduction down to 120Hz, making them ideal for pairing with a powered subwoofer for full-range home theater or music playback.

B&W Solid HCM1 Compact Satellite Speakers with Integrated Stands
A sealed two-way from B&W's Rock Solid series — a 4-inch fibre cone woofer and a polycarbonate dome in a polycarbonate cabinet chosen to kill resonance without adding mass. 90 dB, so modest amplification is enough, and magnetically shielded for desk use. Each speaker comes on its integrated stand bracket. Mark runs a pair as his office near-fields. Cosmetics good, 7 out of 10; tested.
KEF HTS1001 Uni-Q Satellite Speakers Black (Single)
KEF's Uni-Q array puts a 0.6-inch aluminium dome at the acoustic centre of the 3-inch mid-bass, so dispersion stays even off-axis and the far seat hears what the middle seat does. Sealed cast aluminium cabinet in high-gloss black, magnetically shielded, 120 Hz to 22 kHz, 86 dB, 10 to 100 watts. Terminals take bare wire or pin connectors. Very good cosmetic condition.
KEF HTS1001 Uni-Q Satellite Speakers Black Pair
KEF’s Uni-Q array puts a 0.6-inch aluminium dome at the acoustic centre of a 3-inch mid-bass cone, so the pair behaves as a single source and the tonal balance holds across the room rather than in one chair. Sealed cast aluminium enclosures, 120 Hz to 22 kHz, 86 dB, magnetically shielded. Very good cosmetic condition.
Mirage Omnisat OS 1PB-1 Omnipolar Satellite – Made in Canada
Both drivers fire upward into spoon-shaped reflectors Mirage calls OMNIGUIDEs, throwing sound through a full 360 degrees with a deliberate bias toward the front — which is what takes the sweet spot off a single chair. This is the original version at a genuine 7 lbs each, with a cast aluminium baffle and butyl rubber surrounds rather than foam. Built in Canada; condition very good.
Mirage Omnisat OS 1PB-1 Omnipolar Satellite (Pair) – Made in Canada
Both drivers fire upward into spoon-shaped OMNIGUIDE reflectors, giving 360-degree dispersion with a deliberate forward bias. 70 Hz to 20 kHz, 89 dB, cast aluminum woofer baffle and butyl surrounds rather than foam. These are the original 7 lb version; the later revisions come in under five. Very good condition.
PSB VisionSound VS300 Aluminum On-Wall Speaker
An on-wall speaker engineered as one rather than adapted into one. It shares the tweeter, terminals and crossover of PSB's VS400 floorstander, but the port was moved to the front so the cabinet can sit flat to a wall without the wall changing what it does — and a rear switch selects NORMAL or ON-WALL, filling the 400 to 500 Hz dip that hard mounting creates. Extruded aluminium, built in Pickering, Ontario. Graded Excellent or Very Good; the only thing separating the two is a single Tic Tac-sized hole at the extreme edge of one grille frame.
Polk Audio f/x 500i Bipole/Dipole Surrounds — Made in USA, Pair
A genuine mirror-imaged pair, labelled LC and RC, with two driver arrays set 45 degrees apart and a rear-panel switch that flips them between bipole and dipole — locatable effects on the wall behind you, a diffuse field on the side walls, same speakers either way. 19.4 lbs each, half again the weight of the FXi A6 that replaced them, and 2 dB more sensitive. Built in the United States, with keyhole mounts moulded into the cabinet. Very Good condition.
Insignia NS-SP211 2-Way Satellite Speakers, Shielded
A 3-inch woofer and a half-inch PEI dome in a sealed cabinet, 150 Hz to 20 kHz, 8 ohms, 80 watts peak. Keyhole slots are moulded into the back so they hang on a screw in any orientation without a bracket, and a detachable rubber base is included for shelf use. Magnetically shielded. Good cosmetic condition, tested.
Paradigm Cinema 100 CT Satellites speakers, Gloss Black
A sealed two-way in a sculpted mineral-filled polymer cabinet — a 1-inch S-PAL satin-anodised aluminium dome, the same tweeter technology Paradigm uses much further up the range, over a 3.5-inch mineral-filled polypropylene mid/bass. The original removable shelf-stand bases are fitted and tilt the drivers up at a seated listener. 88 dB in room, 8 ohms, 15 to 100 watts. Built in Canada. Good cosmetic condition.
