I've always been fascinated with small monitors. Has anyone heard/does anyone own these?

Overview
The original ProAc Tablette was launched 30 years ago to instant critical acclaim and redefined performance in mini-monitor class loudspeakers at that time. There have been nine incarnations of the Tablette to date and each one has seen improvements in bass extension, midrange transparency and imaging.
Reproducing a large soundstage is a difficult task for a small loudspeaker, because of lack of bass power due to the limitations of the cabinet size. After a year's intense R and D however, ProAc are confident in having significantly improved this area of performance with only marginal increments to the cabinets dimensions. Extra bass power and soundstage size comes from a new 5 inch mid-bass driver which utilizes a Kevlar cone designed by ProAc. This drive unit gives uncanny bass extension, and is loaded by one large, rear port. A new ProAc developed 20mm dome tweeter features a special material on the front plate to dissipate phase anomalies and cancellations. The drivers are seamlessly integrated via a high quality crossover network. As well as improved efficiency and power handling, the Tablette Anniversary produces a significantly larger soundstage. Shut your eyes and the classic Tablette, trademark ability to produce of a large soundstage from such a small enclosure, is now taken to a much higher level.
A huge amount of work has gone into the new Tablette Anniversary and we think you will enjoy listening to the results as much as we have enjoyed creating this new loudspeaker. We recommend you audition this stunning new classic miniature at your ProAc dealer and enjoy the legendary Tablette magic in the finest version we have ever produced.

I remember ProAc being rich sounding. I do like it when paired with McIntosh SS amps.
 
I have already visited the website and seen all the specs, etc. What I am looking for is owner experiences.

I have not heard the Tablette Anniversary's but I used to have the Tablette Signatures when they came out - 10-12 years ago and I loved them. They will show up everything upstream from them and will be irritating. With lesser electronics I liked the Proac Ref 1SCs better.

I read that the Anniversary's don't have quite the bite they used to have and are a little more like the old 1SCs, but I don't have any direct knowledge in that.

I used Naim electronics when I had the Signatures.
