Silverline Minuet Supreme Plus...

Thanks for your ideas, guys. I wrote to Silverline as well and their recommendation was to try one of Rogue's integrated tube amps or solid state from Pass Labs. So it sounds, Duvallite, like the Sphinx would be a great match with these. I would love to know if you go this direction. cheers, Margot

thanks, Bill, for the great idea about the Hegel. I really like that thought. And, Duvallite, I love the Silverlines. I have them on my desktop. They are both really lively but also totally non-fatiguing and easy to listen to. They are completely non-fussy about placement. Most remarkable about them is how well they image and how big they sound. I'm not a big bass person, if you are, you might want a sub. But they go lower than you would expect, given their size. Right now, I just have them set up with the Marantz pm5004 amplifier (basically a $350 amplifier) which isn't a bad combination at all. I'm just wondering what they might be like with better electronics, hence my query. I have heard people using both solid state and tubes with the Silverlines, so the Sphinx might be a nice match. Let me know if you do this. I'd be very curious.

thanks!
