Best compact speakers for the Mac Studio?

[Goodrich]

I have a nice pair of Fujitsu Ten Eclipse TD-M1 speakers that sound pretty good and connect via USB, but the control of them is 2014 rudimentary.

Has there been any advance in speaker technology / control that would offer more versatility without losing sound quality (and, perhaps, allow me to reclaim some desk space and declutter some cabling -- although I like the USB connection as there is not perceptible lag). I don't want any subwoofers, etc, as this is mainly for Youtube / classical music, rather than movies or mastering.

Depends on what you mean by compact. I ordered these bookshelf speakers which I'm really looking foward to....

I think the KEF LSX are worth looking into.

I have some Bowers and Wilkins MM-1 that connect via USB that I really like but I'm no audiophile.

I have the 2 and hate that they are noticeably better than the new studio displays speakers. I was hoping to have less on the desk.

Thanks for all the suggestions so far

I ordered the Kanto Yu2's. Several Youtubers I follow love them. I'm a little concerned about the volume I'm going to get out of these... but they are compact.

IK iLoud Micro or if you can stretch the iLoud MTM's which I upgraded to recently, they're incredible for their size, plus you can mount them on poles clamped to the desk for even more space saved!

I saw those. They didn't look very appealing to me. How's the sound? Is it loud watching streaming?

Presonus Eris 3.5 will wipe the floor with any built-in speakers on any products, and are less than $100 a pair.

They sound great to me, and they can get louder than I’d ever need while sitting at my desk. They’re one of the top-rated studio audio monitors on Amazon.

I will drop those in dont have the Studio yet, use those on my Playstation and like them.
