What mini-monitors should I audition?

I am looking for your input on what mini-monitors should I audition. These speakers are for my 2nd system (family room) that include the Meridian 508.24 CD Player and the Magnum Dynalab MD-208 Receiver (amp and tuner). I prefer something small in size without compromising the sound quality (yes, I understand, limited bass). My local Retailer suggests I listen to the Revel M22 loudspeaker, the Joseph Audio Rm7si Signature speaker and the Acoustic Engery AE1 MkIII speaker. I hope to listen to these speakers next week. Your comments and advice are appreciated. Thanks..

The new Sehring 700 monitor is awesome. One of the best midrange and highs I have ever heard on a minimonitor. (I am a dealer and realize this is a very biased suggestion, but they are awesome)

Just a plug for the ProAc Tablette Reference 8's mentioned above. After hearing a pair at a local dealer, I was floored by the natural, musical presentation, imagining, and yes - bass response - of these little marvels. They are very small, and beautifully finished to boot. I had them order in a pair of the Tablette Reference 8 Signatures, and even though they weren't fully broken in yet, they had even better midrange clarity and a more natural presentation than the standard Ref 8's. I have been using them in my office system (powered by all Arcam FMJ electronics). I would highly recommend either version in their respective price ranges. The Signature series is $500 more, BTW.

For value I would checkout Phase Tech's line of speakers if you can. After some searching I believe they might be great for the $$ as I own speakers using a Titanium Bass\Mid Driver with Inverted Domes that do real well.

Triangles & JM Reynauds are French Cos. I would also like to hear.

Good luck!
