Hey Lindisfarne, any relation to the English group? I think I already asked you that once before, didn't I? Your experience with the TSM has been covered in another thread and I think the bottom line problem with your TSM's was a system mismatch. Resolving speakers with the wrong electronics spells doom and gloom with only one remedy, new speakers or new electronics. You choose keeping the electronics and getting new speakers. Spendors are nice speakers also with a lovely midrange and certainly a bit warmer and maybe less accurate.
Although I haven't personally heard the TSM's, I own the VSM and if the tonal balance is similar and system matching is as critical, which I understand it is, all I can say is too bad you didn't get the opportunity to hear these speakers at their best. At the end of the day you are happy and that is all that matters.
