    Been listening to them for months and I agree.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    I have a pair of TL3 sitting in my closet waiting for a desktop amplifier to run them. I already have a PSW111 running with my active monitors. I have not even heard the TL3 yet and it's killing me. I am thinking of going with the Audioengine N22 since it's for office nearfield listening only and space is a concern.
    AVR: Elite VSX-21TXH
    Amplifier: B&K 7250 Series ii
    Misc: Velodyne SMS-1
    Mains: RTi-10
    Center: CSi-5
    Rear: Boston DSi460
    Sub: SVS PC-Ultra
    TV: Panasonic TC-P58V10
    DVD: Panasonic DMP-BD60K

    That's the other thing I need to research is a good, small in size amp for the desk I can use to power them with a sub pre-out.

    Check out the Nuforce Icon2 desktop DAC amp. They have pre-outs.

    The PSW111 is a great small subwoofer and the size should be in your bracket.

    Does anyone recomend this as their main system? People seem to be using this just as a computer speaker set.
