opinion on Omega Super 3i speakers


Hi All, I recently got a 300B SET tube amp and the seller recommended that I try tip toeing into the world of high sensitivity speakers with Omegas.  I see online the Omega Super 3i series seems relative easy on the wallet to get into, wondering if anyone has experience with these?  Is 3" cone too small?   Should I save up for the bigger 7" or 8" cone size ones?  I'm used to B&W's bookshelf with 6.5" woofer.  Thanks ahead.

I don't know about the Super 3, but just bought the Super 7 Monitors Mk2. I'm breaking in the speakers, so far they played for about 10 hours. 
I'm using them in a small room connected to a little tube amplifier (KingKo Audio KA101, 12W in push-pull using EL84 for power).
These speakers play loud without loosing on detail and clarity. Their sound is a bit to the warm side, I would say - not crisp and analytical. I like the combination with the tube amplifier. 
I guess these are an upgrade on the Super 3 and that's up to your room and wallet which model to choose.
