Re Silverline Minuets - I heard them 'stacked' (two pair) and driven by a modest Monarchy amp (though modified I believe) and an old and also modest CDP, at Silverline's shop a couple of years ago. Alan certainly has an excellent ear for creating a live like sound - we listened to mainly jazz. If I hadn't already focused on my speaker choice I would have been really tempted. I was very impressed! FWIW.
"Warmer" Speaker - $600-1000 Range
I'd like some suggestions for a slightly warmer, fuller, sounding monitor speaker in the $600-1000 range. I currently have a pair of Wharfedale Pacific Evo 8 bookshelf speakers. I like the sound of these speakers, great mids, but the bass is weak and the sound at lower volumes is rather "thin."
Rest of my system - Exposure Super XV integrated amp; Arcam CD73 cdplayer; Music Hall MMF 2.2 turntable.
My listening room is rather small. Approximately 10 ft wide by 20 ft long. My speakers unfortunately are on the short side, so they are only about a foot from the wall and about 5 feet from my listening chair.
Would prefer biwireable speakers. Mostly listen to classic jazz and vocal jazz, along with some classical.
Regards,
David
