I am looking for a 2ch system for my office. It will be mostly near field listening as the office is somewhat small so that is why I am looking into monitors. I head read very good things about the Silverline Minuet so I contacted them but unfortunately they don't have a dealer in my area but I could still purchase directly from them with a nice discount.
I have looked at other speakers locally such as B&W, Def Tech, Klipsch, PSB, Paradigm, etc. and I am not really excited about any of them. To me their music characteristics are not any better than my Mirage Omni 550 towers which I use for my HT. I have found a dealer that carries speakers like the Rega R1 and AVI Pro 9 Plus. Are there any other speakers I could check out in the $500-600 range that you guys recommend?
For now I am looking to power the speakers with an HK3485.
