Barely Bigger Than a Paperback: Ophidian Minimo 2

The Ophidian Minimo 2 is a pocket-sized powerhouse that punches far above its weight — delivering a three-dimensional soundscape and a bass response that simply shouldn't exist in a speaker this small. Built with uncompromising precision in England, it's equally at home on a bookshelf, a desktop or a stand, proving that true audio excellence has nothing to do with size. As HiFi Pig's Ian Ringstead put it: "my first impressions of the Minimo 2 were wow! It's like a magician pulling a rabbit out of a hat."

Big Sound, Tiny Footprint

At its heart is Ophidian's proprietary Aeroflex port system, which slashes port turbulence while reinforcing the bass driver for remarkable low-end clarity and control. It's paired with a 115mm coated-paper midbass driver — now with 65% more surface area than its predecessor — for greater headroom and dynamics, especially down low. A 27mm neodymium Sonolex-coated fabric dome tweeter handles the highs with effortless, fatigue-free smoothness, and close driver spacing delivers pinpoint imaging that lets the Minimo 2 disappear into the room.

At Home Anywhere

Integral rear wall mounts and a small, solid enclosure let the Minimo 2 slot into almost any setup — stereo desktop, surround system or minimalist living space — while its robust cabinet keeps the sound clean and articulate at any volume.

Frequently Asked Questions
