Minimus 7 and 77 info...

Let's just say they are good speakers for there size. Solid as a brick, good components and design BUT they are about the size of your fist so they are only going to sound so good. Funny thing is I would never buy these unless I was looking for something super small because for the same price or less I can get KLH 23's which absolutely blow these out of the water. They are fun and will work well in the RV. I will say they do handle volume pretty well for their size.
 
I have a pair of 7's and every time I connected them to some various amps I had I found them just ehhh. BUT I got a Realistic SA102 amplifier and for some reason they really came alive, like they were made for each other. It is not a room filling system but at a medium level they make me smile and wonder in amazement sometimes. Vinyl through this system is very nice and easy with decent bass. (Decent=there is some there.)

I'm curious as to which version of SA-102 you're using. The early version (model no. 31-1963) has discrete transistor circuitry. Later version SA-102 (model no. 31-1963A) uses the LA4440 monolithic IC amp.

If you have the later version, that would imply the same performance synergy with Minimus 7 could be expected if using SA-150 or SA-155 -- successors to SA-102 that retain the identical chip amp circuitry.

Sorry for the late reply! Mine is the original version, not the chip version.
