FAQS

There is alot of boasting about these speakers, but nothing about the watt range? What is the max watts?

Cambridge Audio specs these from 25 to 200 watts each. 200 seems quite excessive but they are well made and probably could take it for short periods.

How do you compare this with polk omw3, same cost but they’re better with frequency range ?

While we can’t speak to the sound quality of the Polk, one major advantage of the Min 12 is the BMR driver. The combination of flat panel technology with a traditional pistonic driver makes for a near 180 degree sound dispersal

I see these for 79.99 eah at Crutchfield. Is this price correct?

Sorry, fixed automatic price setting.

Can i wire two of these together?

We don’t recommend wiring multiple Min 12 or 22’s together. It would be best to connect a single Min 12 to a single speaker output on whatever amplifier or receiver you have. That being said, the Min 12’s are perfect for multi-channel setups.

Can this speaker be enjoyed alone with just this single unit? Or does it need to be connected with an amplifier?

The Cambridge Audio Minx Min 12 is not a powered speaker so you would need an amplifier and and another Minx Min 12 speaker for stereo

Does the Minx Min 12 have a high pass filter built in? I will be powering this with a 2ch integrated amp *full range* not thru ht receiver “small”.?

It only has one speaker so I would think no high pass filter. You can probably google to make sure. They are nice speakers. I use the as side speakers in a 5.1 surround system and they sound great and take up no floor space if you wall moun t them.

Will other wall brackets hold these or are you forced to buy their product? Nothing against their product but I need multi directional tilt.?

These brackets are held unto the unit via 1 screw, a similar bracket should be able to hold it but these aren’t standard by any means nor do we have a 3rd party suggestion to use

Would these speakers work as a desktop replacement with amp such as the elegiant 200w 12v mini hi-fi amplifier ?

These are pretty good satellite speakers. Don’t expect any low frequency output. You may want to add a subwoofer for full range sound. Otherwise they sound pretty good.

These units sound great but I’d like then to be all white. How can I change the color of the front cover to white instead of grey?

The only other color of the Min12 grille that is available is black. There is no white grille available.

Do you also sell the white version?

Yes, the Minx Min series of speakers are available in both black and white

Can this speaker support full size banana plugs ?

“Yes we have some bananas.” It’s a clever but slightly confusing design. If you pull the binding post straight out of the back of the speaker it opens up a standard banana jack. This will take any single-type banana plug It will not accept the old Pamona dual bananas.

Will it work as upfiring atmos/dts:x speakers ?

they might if you can mount them in a way that angles them toward the ceiling. However they weren’t designed for that purpose and they aren’t particularly “beamy” which is what you’d want from an upfiring speaker

What are the recommended wall brackets for the minx min 12 speaker? also, what is your return

We have the following wall brackets, Minx 400M, available: https://www.amazon.com/Cambridge-Audio-Minx-Speaker-Brackets/dp/B07KXZXKMK/ref=sr_1_20 dchild=1&keywords=cambridge+audio+minx&qid=1586188924&sr=8-20

I have a tv with an hdmi output. how do these speakers connect?

These speakers connect to an amplifier using standard speaker wire. It can not accept HDMI directly. To use your HDMI output, you will need an amp that accepts the HDMI and outputs the amplified audio for speakers to use. Pretty much any home theater receiver will do this
