Mission 761's - my first dip into hi-fi from an old ghetto blaster
Royd Abbots - loved these a lot but eventually the upgrade bug bit
SF Cremonas - had them on demo for 2 weeks. Couldn't make them work in my room
Pro Ac 30s - lacking a bit of sparkle and life for my tastes
Naim SL2's - Nailed it! Smug satisfaction to this day

Not sure you'd like the Vienna's, as some I've heard are a bit "soft" in balance.

I love the Cremona series though. The magnificent finish and superbly judged sound quality goes some way to justifying the UK prices and the original floorstanding model gave a humble Naim pre and power (92/90 even without flatcap at the time - that came later) a glorious soundfield between and around the speakers I never thought it capable of....... Unmatched perhaps, but the client loved it and bought a pair...
