Thanks everyone for your recommendations. I've spent time reading up on the Silverline Audio Minuets. The reviews make them at least sound pretty special. I just spoke, I believe, with Alan who was of course very confident about his product and quite enthusiastic. He quoted me a great price of under $500, which sounds like a great deal. I'm somewhat hesitant however because of the no-return policy. Despite what I read, I imagine that the small size of the Minuets might not sound full-enough for my taste. They appear pretty easy to drive, which makes me think that even my smallish 55w exposure integrated amp will be enough.
"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
