Silverline Audio makes some very impressive speakers and they just don't get the recognition they deserve. I don't think I have ever seen an ad for them anywhere, word of mouth keeps them going.

I've heard a lot of speakers, and their Minuets are in the top portion of that list. For $600 they are an absolute steal. The owner of the company, Alan Yun, is also one of the nicest people I have ever met. At last year's HES show, he was putting some very expensive speakers to shame with his $5 garage sale cd player, low-power amp and a pair of minuets.

Their product range is less confusing than it used to be, when they had totally different floorstanders coming in at the same price point, but it's still a bit disjointed when compared to ranges like the Usher Dancer series or JM Lab Utopia Be series, which have an obvious price/performance ladder. Silverline uses different cabinet designs, at least four totally different tweeters, etc. It's like pick something and stick with it already.
