I've been looking for some vintage speakers, and I remembered how well my uncle's minimus 7s sounded growing up, so I looked to see if I could find some. I bought these and I'm very pleased with how they look and sound. They are in excellent condition, were packaged well, and arrived a day early. These make a great bedroom tv or computer stereo setup with a small amp.

Oh I can't believe how the 4-inch woofer drives the good quality of sound. It is so articulate that the highs are clearly defined and lows are very good and tight.

This model speaker might be one of the very best ever produced. I ran a vehicle using just one of these as a CB radio speaker and it was awesome. I use SIX of these in various audio labs, as bench test speakers and microphone testers and in all the years since 1979 have only needed to replace the bass drivers once because they turned to cheese. Other than that, these babies are made with die-cast cabinets and can probably be used as vehicle wheel chocks if you get hung up! A definite five-star product.

the realistic minimus 7s are a real example of big things come in small packages ive had a set of these since the first came out when they are paired to a good amp and eq these really come alive with the overkill design typical of realistic speakers these small but fairly heavy speakers reallt prouve that you dont need big hi-fi speakers to get good bass responce the little 4" woofer and built in crossover really generate some big driver bass from the tiny driver yet it still maintains a very clean responcive high end with the big 1" silk dome tweeter each driver in the cabnet features a 1" voice coil and the little woofer offers some impressive excursion for its size (its magnet is as big as the rest of the woofer and weighs in at around 5 pounds realistic really made these to take some hard use with very sturdy construction and great woofer suspention if you want some very capeable yet compact speakers for your system these oldschool speakers will serve you very well with many years of reliable trubble free use these are some small power houses of sound and for those who love bass paired to the correct eq these will hold their own with shockingly impressive bass responce in a nutshell these little things thump and thump hard for their compact size they dont make bookshelf speakers like these anymore get yourself some vintage speakers when they had real responceRead full review

The Minimus 18 speakers sound fine with my Realistic receiver. They don't have BOOM BOOM bass sound of course. They are a small shelf speaker but they have the dynamic range to replicate music in a nice flat overall response. I also like their small size as do my neighbors.
