Office speakers?

AT home I have a Mac tube amp 2102 with a mac pre 2200. My signal comes from a trivista SACD and ends with the Sonus Cremonas and Auditors...

At work I spend most of my time behind a couple of computers with dual monitors... and listen to some computer speakers with a cheap woofer... I am thinking about changing that. I am pretty set on the Rotel 1062 int. and the rotel 1072 CD Player... I am open to some synergy here...with regards to speakers. :) They have to be small, because I will set them along side the monitors. My thoughts are Epos 3's or 5. Perhaps something a little forward and swift such as the Proac or perhaps even the Totem Arrows or the spendors. Placement will be a problem and I know soundstage probably will not happen in my space... I could eventually get two sets and then use the AB switch on the integrated to play the ones I am sitting in front of... Any suggestions.. comments?

I kind of ran a similar thread a few months back....

I was doing the same thing as you==a 2nd system of sorts and looking for "decent sound". I ended up w/ some spica's with stands. Driving it with a Mcintosh 1700 receiver. The suggestions were above & like you were thinking, some proac tablettes or old rogers ls3 or something. Good luck & you'll end up with a nice system.

Bob, you've been mentioning M&K a lot lately. It's strikes me as odd because almost no one talks about them, yet they have been around for a long time.

Do you have a lot of experience with them, or do you have a friend that is a dealer for them?

Thanks Guys... I just took a peek at the ushers and picked up a review from stereophile. I can not use stands at this point - so I will have to set them next to the monitors... They are knocking out a wall and I will get stretched out a bit - but... THe old Rogers would be fun.
I love the M&K size but don't see much on them... Would be nice to hear...

It would be nice to have a couple of monitors for a different interpretation of the music... That's why I really want the AB switch...

Thanks and keep the advice coming.. :)
