what are quality & value small speakers (cross-posted in newb section too)

[1655graff]

I'd like to use wall and/or ceiling mounted speakers in the kitchen. We've all seen the Bose mini-cubic ones. I've also found the ORB ones.

What other ones are available?
I need:

• WAF-kosher (small, "stylish," not too visible, not too expensive)
• Can stand on their own in their audio output, not really "satellite" (I don't think)
• Don't want them to be too "thin" audiably

How does on google for them?
My searches so far on "small speakers reviews" isn't proving to be very fruitful. Lots of chaff hits.

If your looking for small speakers like the Bose cubes, then the Orb's are most likely your best bet.

How about something like these?
