The Omega Junior 8XRS. A more compact and affordable version of the Super 8 XRS. I felt rather than make a monitor version of the 8, I would do a smaller tower, saving the need for and cost of stands. Another plus is larger cabinet volume than a monitor, yet a very space friendly, elegant, compact tower. Like their big brother, they will compliment your solid state integrated, and will grace your $20,000 SET monoblocs. 2 watts of flea power SET will light them up like few speakers on the market.

THE XRS CONCEPT
XRS stands for Xtended Room Speaker. What is extended? The all important midrange, the width and depth of the soundstage, the bottom end, and the "hugeness" of the presentation from a compact speaker. The wide baffles on these models enhance the midrange, giving a wide-open unboxed sound and tremendous imaging.
