What was it about them that made them your favorite? Do you still have them, and if not, what did you replace them with?
My favorite was a pair of Merlin TSM-M minimonitors in an exquisite "ruby heart" (i.e. candy apple red) high-gloss finish atop a pair of Osiris speaker stands filled with sand. Clarity and imaging were absolutely breathtaking! They were driven by a Clayton Audio S40 pure class A solid state stereo power amp, Conrad-Johnson PV-10 tube preamp, and a Sony CDP-XA7ES CD player. I also used a pair of KR Audio (then KR Enterprise) VT-9000 hybrid tubed monoblocks. I replaced the TSM's with a pair of Silverline Sonatina floor speakers in a bird's eye maple. Also great sounding speakers. Very smooth and silky from top to bottom.
