I think you made a very good choice. Monitor is a brand that I would have recommended, but given the description in your original post, I thought they may be a bit too revealing. I had the silver 8's, myself. If I remember correctly, the ones I had were replaced by the current line. (The ones you just bought.)
You should like them very much. The speakers are very easy to drive and are not difficult to find a good room placement. More importantly, they have great pacing and are just fun to listen to. If you can, post back on how you like them, once You've had a chance to listen.
