Apart from the wall positioning the designs have wide sound dispersal which so room positioning is.
Neat iota wall mount.
Leaving the rather less affordable kii threes aside the neat iota alpha is the most satisfying near wall or boundary hugging loudspeaker for smaller rooms i have hosted in my own premises.
It can be placed on shelves sideboards worktops or desktops some form of isolation is recommended.
The iota is a two way bass reflex design with a rear mounted port.
Visually deceptive the iota alpha required some unorthodox imagineering.
Well wood fibre at any rate.
Neat acoustics iota alpha there are a couple of fundamental problems with the neat acoustics iota alpha loudspeakers.
They are small and they are cute.
This tiny loudspeaker is extremely flexible in terms of placement.
I can t recommend these alphas highly enough if tiny loudspeakers are what you are on the lookout for to see and hear them is to want them.
The tweeter is a two inch planar magnetic ribbon transducer.
The cabinet is heavy mdf.
Precisely why this is a problem becomes clear when you move them out of the room and suddenly hear a peculiar whining noise from the upper regions of the other half.
Alternatively neat suggests the speakers should be used on isolating cones if placed on shelves or table tops and has also fitted the speakers with two point horizontal 60mm spaced m6 mounting points to which a wall bracket could be attached.
The basis of the original iota the main drive unit and the emit type planar magnetic tweeter is housed in the top section of the cabinet in a sealed volume angled upwards.
An attractive design with a rear mounted bass port so don t place them too close to the wall a soft dome tweeter plus a mid bass unit made from of all things wood.
Its driver complement includes a four inch polypropylene cone mid bass unit with a ferrite magnet assembly.
The iota can also be mounted on wall brackets if required.
Neat acoustics calls it a super micro and indeed it is so small you can palm it.
