I used VSM SEs plus BAM with the 10ish watt Cary 300B monos in a medium sized room with GREAT success, subject to ultimate spl limitations. This combo produced the best vocal representation I've heard. Can't speak to the SLI though.

PS I understand that later versions of the VSM may not be quite as friendly to low wattage SET amps.
