So i just picked up these speakers yesterday, very unique, Omega Mini me.

 

Let me tell you, the cabnitry is amazing, a nice shiny black interesting wood. And the drivers are very intersting looking. They sound amazing, great stereo imaging. Great sound, and they only have one 3" driver. I picked these up for 110$, back in 2005ish they were about 400-500$. 

Pretty rare, not many exist.

Gotta know dem numbers. :)

But thoes are not valuable numbers. 3" is small, but that doesnt mean they are not good.

I have heard that they are not great value. But they do look great.

Sound Quality  wise you right.

 

but i was just wondering how much kick they would have :) which wouldn't be the same for a 3 inch versus a 7 inch or 15 inch.

They are surprisingly punchy for there size, in the drum/upper bass region. LUckily i have a 10" subwoofer on the floor paired with them

These speakers are still plenty big compared to the driver. BIgger than my speakers with a 5.25" woofer and a tweeter

Looking, there appears to be a good amount of dampening stuff in there, I can see what looks like stuffing through the port
