I owned the Sophias for two years and they're absolutely wonderful. They work very well with smooth sounding SS integrateds such as your Mac; I initially heard them with a Musical Fidelity integrated. They will provide a solid foundation from which to move up the electonics food chain. I'd suggest tubes would be in your future. I can also attest to their more than capable performance at lower volume listening. Some of the people at Wilson are also fans of Nordost cabling which you own.
I'd have no qualms about buying a demo from a reputable dealer...in fact this is the best way to go considering their list price.
If you're into the Wilson sound as they "spoke" to you, you'd better reply as anything else would be a stopgap measure and cost you more in the long run. Good luck!
