Tangent-Audio EVO E5 bookshelf speakers (per pair)

List Price $249 

The small, discreetly stylish, two-way EVO 5 loudspeakers from the Danish specialists Tangent feature glossy finishes in white or black. Employing the latest driver technology, Tangent engineers have fashioned a die-cast aluminum frame and large shielded magnets for the woofer and neodymium magnets for the 25mm soft dome tweeter, thus ensuring the delivery of surprising powerful sound pressure levels extending well into the low end via a back-firing bass port. Wall-mounting brackets are included. The open-box construction draws on the bass port, located discreetly to enhance playback without distracting from the Tangent EVO E5’s visual appearance.

Awarding the speaker 4/5 stars, The British publication What Hi-Fi?, describes the Evo 5’s "thoroughly pleasant sound and fine standard of build and finish."
