    Dan, do you mean MA500?

    Actually they are the MA500 models. They are skinny and long. Here is a pick of 2 of them I recently had in my system using them as Mono's to my main channels.

    If you have a lack of space/ simple separates These look as if they would fit inside, esp. if you have a some sort of record collection. Didn't check depth but looks close
