Spendor A1 vs Tannoy Autograph Mini's

Hello there. I’m pretty new to all this. Always sunk my money in studio equipment but  now I’m dying for a fine low-volume listening experience in a smallish room. Think I’m going with the Vincent SV 500 for an amp. Feel like I’ve narrowed my speaker choices down. Looking at either the Spendor A1’s or the Tannoy Autograph mini’s. No way to hears these just going by what I’ve read and price. I’d love to hear some opinions before I pull the trigger. Thank you in advance.

Well They are #1 on my list just no way to hear them, that's why I'm asking for opinions.

I had the previous generation of the Tannoys, or was it a lower end version?  Tannoy’s lines were somewhat muddled to me a few years back.  
Anyway, it was the Revolution 4.  A great little speaker with a lot going for it.   Beautiful midrange and imaging, but not much in the way of a bottom end below 70 Hz or so.  It was rated for 50 watts RMS.

i liked them so much I upgraded to the Revolution 4T, the tower version.  The thing with a 4“ pressed paper driver is it’s so fast.  It became my favourite size for vocals.  
I haven’t heard the other speaker.
