Ace! I'll give some noisy sound-offs a go when I'm out later. They do have a bit of punch when required, watched a film last night which regularly saw the dog jumping up and scurrying away.
My uncle used to be really into his audio stuff, had best part of £20k in a musical fidelity pre/power mono block amps, counterpoint players and processors and then some speakers that I've never heard of before. What I loved about it was even at incredibly low volumes (you can easily hold a conversation at the other side of the room over it) it was so clear and engaging, you just wanted to re-listen to everything you'd ever heard before to discover what it would really sound like

yup - although if, as you say, they are used then they might just not be great :P
My general advice is to either DIY some or buy some decent vintage speakers - there has been very little technological improvement in speaker technology in the past 60 years.
