Arcam Solo Mini + speakers for small room

[manicm]

Hi, I will be purchasing a Solo Mini for a small room initially and will need to place the speakers on (don't laugh) my dressing table. This is until I find a bigger place.

The one speaker will be about 20cm from a sidewall unfortunately.

I'm narrowing my choice to B&W 686 or Dali Lektor 1. If common sense must win the day then I will consider the Musos, but I would like a reasonable compromise, and also resale value until I get get bigger speakers.

Opinions and advice anyone?

IMO either of the above will do but the B&W 686's arent that small. The Dali's are a lot smaller!

Also it depends on what music you listen to; ideas of that will help more

Well the latest issue rates the Dalis well above the B&Ws, and I thought the 686s were great, so the Lektor must be special. If you can stretch to £400, the AVI Neutron V (or perhaps exdem IV for less if you can find them) would be another good option.
