$1k speakers / Audio Refinement Complete


Help! I live in remote North Idaho and am hours from even a Circuit City! I've purchased an Audio Refinement Complete integrated and need speakers new or used. From Bach to Coltrane to Aretha to Emmylou, I love music. Cerebral cello, sizzling jazz cymbal, funk bass, Strad, flat pickin', Pavarotti, and Sarah Vaughn-I love it all. I can spend up to $1k on speakers-no more. I would be deeply indebted for any expert advice, especially regarding what I might find used online. Thanks in advance.

Perhaps too numerous to count. I would lean towards buying used - should be able to buy in great shape at 50-70% of list. For around 1000, with some patience, you could/should find Vandersteen 2C, Maggie 1.6 (not sure the amp can handle these), ProAc Studio 125/150 or Response 1, and many others. If you can go a little higher, there is a pair of Soliloquoy 5.3 on this site now for 1300. Happy hunting.
