Silverline Speakers Minuet Supreme Plus - Sonatina MKIV

My main system consists of a Macintosh MC 2125 amp, C30 preamp, and a Thorens TD 320 turntable.  I had a set of BW 603 which I really liked.  I had them hooked up with a Sub ... but they really didnt need it.  After a few years of use ... and as I said I really thought they sounded great.  I got the bug for new speakers.  I went down to Magnolia and heard all the recent candidates from BW.  The CM 10 sounded pretty nice .... but honestly not much better than my 603 S3s.  Maybe it is my system vs the test system at BB .... who knows.  I went to some local listening rooms and heard friends systems (including some really high end 5k -10k) ... not much really made we want to buy a set of speakers.  Well, that is until I heard the Silverline Sonatina MKIII.  I was basically blown away.  I found a set of used MKIVs and bought them.  I have had them for about a year.  They are absolutely awesome. NO Sub!  I can not imagine getting rid of these ... ever.  For whatever reason they turn my system into pure nirvana.  Some of my audiophile friends are blown away. 

OK now the real purpose of my post ... my bedroom system.  This system consists of a Sound Valves VTA-70 Tube amp, Carver C1 preamp (completely upgraded - really sounds awesome) and BW 685 S1s.  So lets just focus on speakers.  This system really sounds amazing ... I mean really nice.  I was extremely satisfied with the BWs.  So since I have been so happy with my Silverlines on the main system ... I decided to try a set of Silverline Minuet Supreme Plus which I found on Ebay at a decent price and sell the BWs.  Well as happy as I was with the BWs, I am happier with the SIlverlines.  They just sound crisper I think is how to explain it.  I read that they dont have much bass .... that is just not true.  They dont have that deep bass that my Sonatina MKIVs have .... but they really sound full and have plenty a tight bass.  Maybe it is my amp thay allows the bass to come through ... I cant really say ... but there is no lack of bass at all.  Built quality is top notch as well.

I just wanted to let the forum know how good these little (they are small - 1/2 the size of the 685s if that) speakers sound.  I do think it has to do with the quality of the input signal ... the better that is the better these babies sound is my guess.  They are $700 new ... I found my set on Ebay for 400.  Really 400 ... it is hard to believe that 400 dollar speakers can sound this good.
