Up for your consideration is a pair of Silverline Audio Minuet Supreme Plus monitor speakers finished in a rosewood veneer. Right up front I have to point out that while I always took great care in handling these (and that meant wearing white cotton gloves) one speaker slipped from my grip and a small (less than 2mm) section of the speaker received a dent. The dent is on the bottom of the speaker and is barely noticeable. I took a close up of it and though it looks rather large in the photo, it is about the size of the tip of a BIC stick pen. Otherwise, these speakers are in great shape and the small nick has no impact on the sonics. Frankly, with the speakers placed on stands the imperfection will never be noticed.And on to the sonics; these speakers have several online reviews and there are no reviews that do not sing the praises of these speakers. They image like all monitors do, and even though the mid-woofer is small, I have fooled many a listener into thinking that there is a sub playing in the room. These speakers disappear and just allow the music to flow effortlessly from them. They are easy to drive, and the better the electronics on the front end, the better these sound. So, if these are so good, why am I selling? Good question. I would love to keep these but I have three sets of speakers in the house and the bride would love it if I "thinned the herd" some so these are up for sale. I would love to keep them but in all fairness they are the best of the speakers I have that would be the most appealing to the masses. I also have some 28 inch metal Target R4 knock-off speaker stands that I will sell for $125 extra but one would have to be in the Seattle area to get these as they are loaded with sand and steel shot and are pretty darn heavy. Shipping will be in the continental US only. I will consider shipping to Canada but all tariffs, fees, dues, taxes and actual shipping costs will be paid by the buyer. Sorry but when I ship to Canada I seem to pay more than the buyer. I have the original box but I will double box it so as to get the extra protection. At my asking price I will split shipping and PayPal fees. Please check out my feedback on Audiogon under the user name of "zkidd". You will see that I have a 100% positive feedback with over 240 transactions to date.
