Monitor help.. I know I iknow... lots of threads

No room for MMG's.. they would consume the room.. aesthetically not physically. They have to be like minimum 12" off the wall I think.. really like 24" if I remember correctly? My thought is Im gonna have to hang some mini monitors off the wall somewhere.. perhaps up high in the ceiling severely slanted downward.. which I realize makes real audiophiles sigh and press the next button... but it is what it is.. I've been looking at all of the aforementioned speakers.. most out of my price range new.. but I do have patience so I can hold out.. Id prefer to buy new with a return policy however... still researching..

I would love to hear the Vandersteen VLR only because I know what he seems to shoot for with his designs. I cant afford to pull the trigger on these sadly.

Silverline Minuet Supreme

So, I paid close attention to all your suggestions.. and I watched for all of them.. and read about them.. accept I did decide the Minuet Supreme probably would not be to my liking.. but wound up pulling the trigger on a pair of near new Era D5's from classifieds here. My Aleph 3 might have the power supply to drive them.. if not, I will dust off the threshold 400a.. although I may need help lifting it off the shelf! I spent hours reading reviews and they seem to fit my bill.. My room opens into my kitchen which I did not mention.. Should have them next week.. I'll post back in case anyone else is looking for something similar with my thoughts.. Im really excited that they are touted as non-fatiguing speakers in a low price range.. hopefully I did good.
