Cambridge Audio Minx Min 12 - Compact Wired Satellite Speaker Featuring BMR Speaker Technology - Includes Keyhole Bracket for Discreet and Easy Wall Mounting - White

Product Information

Operating the unit via the front panel and supplied remote is fine once you get the hang of it, but it’s a far more engaging experience controlling the unit via CA’s excellent (free) Stream Magic app for Apple/Android devices. It’s a lively little unit with a slightly forward presentation that likes to bring vocals and musical verve to the fore. For a long time, Bluetooth audio has had a reputation for sounding grainy, and is often intermittent due to its being a compressed format. Finished in high-gloss black or white, these compact speakers are beautifully subtle and unobtrusive.

Unfortunately, as manufacturers do not make manuals or guides in all languages, we cannot guarantee that a local language manual is included for the item. Cambridge hasn’t refrained from striving to continually improve the Minx’s ability to portray that part of the spectrum with their BMR drivers now in their 4th generation.

Now that's one thing going for me - I actually ran speaker wire to all four corners from the TV position in the lounge area in anticipation of potentially needing them one day. Despite the jarring nature of these moments, the sub remains well integrated with the rest of the system, producing a dramatic sound befitting of a big screen experience.

If you are unsure about a manual available in the desired language, just contact us and we will do what we can to help. Those very low effects handled by the subwoofer would also sometimes distort and overpower the rest of the audio, especially using the Movie DSP, so we’d avoid that mode and whilst there’s not really a great deal between the other three, in terms of tuning, we found the Voice and Music modes to offer the best accompaniment to film soundtracks.

Easy to place
Little bigger than a Rubik's Cube, the MIN12 is already incredibly discreet and easy to place.Finally, the BMR unit moves in a more uniform manner, giving a more accurate sound across all frequencies. On the plus side, the Minx smartphone app is very self-explanatory, offering easy source selection, internet radio browsing, EQ and volume controls, and last but not least - free lifetime technical support.

Using a single, BMR drive unit, the MIN 12 satellite speakers give pinpoint accuracy and are bursting with detail right up to high volume levels. I haven't seen the speakers in the flesh yet but I like the look from photos and think they might be acceptable to the wife, particularly if we explore both the black and white options to maximise discreteness. Whether you’re wielding a smartphone or a tablet (Android, Apple iOS or Windows) they’ll all know that the Air 200 is in the room, and will happily talk wireless to it. Minx Min 12 compact speakers are encased in high-gloss lacquered ABS cabinets, with the special BMR speaker drivers mounted to die-cast aluminium exoskeletons, they’re reassuringly solid. Once you’ve jumped through those hoops, the Air’s connection is confirmed by a solid green light on the back of the unit.

The main visual difference between this and the previous generation is the small Cambridge logo on the grille’s corner rather than the company’s name, which further increases the speakers’ inconspicuous appearance. Cambridge Audio's Minx Min 21 proves that great, soul-stirring sound can come from incredibly small speakers.

If you’d rather spread the cost over 36 months, you can set up a loan repayment plan when the payment-free period comes to an end at 19.

Cambridge Audio Single Satellite Speaker Cambridge Audio MINX MIN12 No Current WS CAMB-MIN12-BLK 79.When you’ve got a system with this many wires and settings, it’s surprisingly easy for things to go wrong. While the overall cleanness of the package makes it enjoyable to listen to, there is a compromise in the overall insightfulness it can offer. When watching the opening of Baby Driver on Blu-ray, the guitars of Bellbottoms lack bite and this punchy sequence feels slightly smoothed out and overly polite.
