Micca COVO-S Compact 2-Way Passive Bookshelf Speakers for Desktop Stereo or Home Theater Surround Sound, 3-Inch Woofer with Concentric Tweeter, Wall Mountable, Pair, Black : Electronics
In stock
IMPORTANT NOTE – The COVO-S is a passive bookshelf speaker and requires connection to an amplifier or home theater receiver. It cannot be connected directly to a turntable, smartphone, or computer.
The COVO-S compact speaker system is another landmark product from Micca that delivers great sound in a small package. Drawing from the same classic yet distinct design as Micca’s popular MB series speakers, the COVO-S looks great and is easy to place in a wide variety of room decor. Its exceptionally rich sound belies its diminutive size and makes it a great selection for use in small to medium-sized listening areas such as an office. The COVO-S is shielded.
Superior Sound Through Superior Engineering
Built using a patented concentric driver design, the COVO-S’s audio performance results from a balanced application of sophisticated drivers, enclosure tuning, and crossover construction. The speaker driver used is a 3-inch wool paper cone woofer with an inset mounted 0.75″ PEI dome tweeter. By sharing a common acoustical center point, the concentric woofer and tweeter design maintain coherency through the crossover transition region. The unique curve of the woofer cone serves as a horn waveguide for the tweeter, resulting in improved off-axis dispersion characteristics.
The COVO-S employs a ported enclosure design, generating modest bass output for a warm sound signature. A 6dB/octave crossover makes for a smooth transition between the woofer and the tweeter. Rounding out the package are full-size 5-way speaker wire binding posts and removable grills.
Compact and Affordable
Listen for yourself. Discover how good a pair of affordable compact speakers can be by trying them risk-free in your home. Due to the COVO-S’s small size, they work best when used in a small to medium-sized listening area. Place them along a wall or near a corner of the room for better bass output. If you are not absolutely delighted with the COVO-S’s performance, simply return them for a refund.

So, I’m quite early in my listening to provide a concrete assessment of these little speakers, but right off the bat: I really like them! Speakers, probably more so than any other purchase in audio, are extremely subjective. We all like what we like, often times unexplainable by science and / or what the design looks like on paper. The standard gamut of audiophile terms like “imaging”, “sound stage” etc are all “nice”, but I’ll leave them out for now and just give my simple opinion… :)Of course, the best way to make a decision on a speaker purchase is to actually hear them for yourself first, but at this price-point, I would highly recommend giving these an “ear blind” chance. I did, and am now really glad about it!That said, I just wanted to mention that while researching these speakers, and now after hearing them, I think a majority of the negatives seen by buyers are VERY context driven. Many cited poor bass response, lack of power handling capability, lack of clarity, etc. Okay, quite frankly, these are not akin to a speaker like Cerwin Vega that can handle 500W RMS. Plain and simple, no. Also, this design is simply not meant for a far-field setup IMO. Even with a sub, I would not try to listen to these from any farther than a few feet away. Also, IMO, amplifier topology matters. I had seen some reviews referencing use with Class D amps, and sorry (opinion alert!) I have just never liked Class D, with any speaker architecture. Don’t get me wrong, I think Class D can be great for certain applications, but for critical listening, not as much. Hook these up to a Class A or A/B solid state amp (or even a little single ended tube amp as I am listening to them with) in a near field arrangement, and I think they really have a nice natural sound.Now, for CONTEXT :). I tend to like somewhat mid-range heavy speakers (Magnepan etc), so that is my bias. I primarily wanted these to listen to jazz / acoustic / rock at low to moderate levels while working at my desk at VERY close range (~18″). For that, they are great so far IMO. On the other hand, if you are looking at these to listen to heavy metal, R&B, pop, hip hop, etc at near reference levels with a far-field setup, these are likely not going to do it for you. I have yet to try it, but I am doubtful that even pairing these with a sub would yield good results for those types of music / use cases.One last point of reference, my source / signal chain for this review is: Tidal MQA on Mac OS ==> iFi iDSD Black Label (via USB) ==> Musical Paradise MP-301 MK1 Tube Amp (via RCA) ==> COVO-S (16 AWG standard speaker wire w/ banana plugs). Hope this helps some of you that may be on the fence about getting these! I’ll try to remember to come back with an update after a few months time.
I needed tiny stereo speakers for an analog stereo receiver. These are perfect. Tiny they are. They have very clear and bright sound quality. Sure, there is no pounding bass, but there is goo bass resolution. These tiny speakers are perfect for a small room, bedroom, office, apartment, condo, or dorm room. I am quite happy with them.
Great little surround speakers that offer impressive sound despite their small size
What a pleasant surprise these speakers were.Let me be clear…these are tiny speakers, not the best choice for mains or in a big room; they aren’t capable of producing extreme volumes or heavy bass. Don’t expect them to sound like big speakers, they aren’t meant to. They have small 3″ concentric (meaning, the tweeter is in the center of the woofer) drivers, in tiny little cabinets. The cabinets measure roughly 4″ X 5″, to give you an idea. But they sound much, much larger, and produce a very pleasant and balanced tone. The highs are clear, the midrange clean and clear, and they actually have a little bass!! I am listening to music over them without a sub, and it’s actually quite pleasant. Add a small sub, cross it around 100-120 hz, and you have a seriously rocking mini-system.Applications: Office or desk speakers, bedroom, and for anyone who is not interested in all-out home theater, but wants a dramatic improvement over their TV speakers (be advised that an amp will be required to drive them), or even as surround speakers so long as it’s not too big of a room. These are compact and attractive, and they sound far better than any other “cube” speakers I’ve heard. I have read that many here have bought the Pyle cube speakers, and weren’t happy with them because of their tinny sound and utter lack of bass. These are in a whole different category!These are rear ported, so remember to keep them several inches off the wall for best bass response.By far the best speaker in this category that I’ve heard. This company continues to produce excellent speakers at budget prices. 5 stars for this cube / mini speaker category.Good listening!——————————————————————————–Update–I had a little time to play today, so for grins and giggles, I connected these through a small, 6″ sub I have. This really fills in the bottom end, and together, they sound like a much larger system. I have it crossed at about 100 hz, and it blends seamlessly. I thought it would sound better at a higher crossover, but it gets a little muddy when set any higher. These speakers seem to be quite strong down to the 90 hz rating, maybe even a bit lower.I also noticed that with the high-pass filter of the sub inline; the speakers can play much louder without distortion. No doubt due to limiting the woofer excursion. I’m playing these in my basement workshop at the moment, and getting some surprising volume out of them.This would be a fine office or bedroom setup where space it at a premium. Even for a 2:1 TV setup instead of using a crappy sound bar. The Dayton 8″ sub would be a great match for these; together they would give you a dandy sounding small system for around $110.——————————————————————————–Update 2-7-15–I had some time to play again today, and I was curious how these would do on the dandy Lepai 2020 amp. They actually play very well on it. It drives them about as hard as they want, with plenty of mid-bass response from them. Music was full and warm with enough bass to make it pleasant to listen too. Of course, you’ll need a sub if you want rumble; but these sound nice by themselves so long as you aren’t a bass monger. I was pretty surprised at how much volume the Lepai could get from these.These speakers and the Lepai amp would be the ultimate cheap office setup. Much better than most computer speakers. And as already mentioned; you can add a small sub if you want more boom.—————————————————————————————————————————————————————-Well, 2.5 years later and I bought another pair of these. We’ve gotten into the Alexa thing, and purchased a couple of Echo Dots to use in the house. Wifey wanted a stand-alone audio system in the family room where she could play music from the Dot but have something else on the TV screen at the same time (can’t really do that when switching everything through a home theater receiver), but she didn’t want yet another pair of big speakers in the room (I don’t understand her issue; I only have two tower speakers, a large center channel speaker, 2 12″ subs and 4 ceiling speakers in there 🙂 ). So I used a pair of these that are small enough to be unobtrusive, and hid a low-profile sub behind the TV cabinet. System is crossed at 100 hz, just above the 90hz lower rating of the speakers. .It sounds great! The COVO’s produce the highs and mids cleanly and the sub pics up the bottom end.And wifey likes it. Happy wife = Happy life.Again…these will never match the sound of larger speakers; you can’t change the laws of physics. But add a sub and set the system up properly, and they will come very close to mimicking the sound of larger speakers. These are by far the best speakers of this size that I’ve found. Just for fun…I recently picked up a Bose base module and the five “Jewel Cube” (the ones with a top and bottom speaker that swivel) speakers that come with it at a thrift store. These COVO’s beat the Bose Jewel Cube speakers so badly, there’s no real comparison. They have better highs and lows, and a much warmer sound. And they cost far less if buying new.Good Listening!
I bought this pair of Micca COVO-S coaxial bookshelf speakers to pair with My ZK-152H Bluetooth HiFi Tube Amplifier with TDA7377 Chip and a Onkyo 8in ported powered sub for My desktop PC and it sounds amazing! The COVO-S are a replacement for My Bose 301 Series IV’s because they were just too large for My desk space and the Bose 301’s needed more room for reflection to sound full. After hooking these little guys up I was very impressed with the fullness of the sound stage and vocal reproduction even at low volumes and they can get plenty loud without breakup. The low end is the only thing the COVO-S is lacking a little in and that’s where the powered Onkyo 8″ sub comes in handy. Micca looks to have updated the COVO-S from older models with metal threaded wall mount points on the back so they can be used as rear channels for surround sound applications and the speaker cabinet is well made out of MDF board (Not plastic) and ported. I’ve been binging HiFi FLAC YouTube videos all night and it sounds Amazing!
