Review: Silverline SR17 Supreme speakers

Also the mounting requirements are a bit different given their different enclosure philosophies and construction - Audiovector prefers isolation (e.g. rubber pads) as is the fashion these days, Silverline is old school and prefers coupling (Blu-Tack) to the heaviest stand you can find, which helps ground the bass and control the cabinet resonance. The former can sound good on light, unfilled stands whereas the latter sounded best on my old heavy steel Osiris filled with sand. I currently use a Dynaudio Stand 6 with sand which is kind of in the middle and not as good as the Osiris, but my wife greatly prefers how they look. :)

Thank you very much for your response to my questions. Your info really helps me with my decision making process for purchasing new speakers. One very persuasive comment was your wife's comment about the sound of the speakers. I guess I am going to have to get on the BART and go see Alan.

Best wishes
