Best bookshelf speakers???


My listening room is about 11' x 13'. The speakers need to go in a bookshelf. Floor-standing isn't an option (my linn keilidh's are saddened by this turn of events!). I'm pretty much sold on the Peachtree 125 as I can get a silly discount on it through my company. I need some help with the speakers---I've heard the Totem Rainmakers (told they're great for this application), friend is recommending the Silverline Minuets. Some talk of Monitor Audio and even the Peachtree Design 5s.....anyway, since they're oging to be in the bookshelf itself, a rear port won't work. That may rule out the Silverlines. Any thoughts---budget ~ $800/pr. Audio source is mp3-quality.

Jburidan and all the others nailed it! MP3 quality recordings simply fail to measure up by a not-so-subtle degree.

Stepping up to new hardware in an attempt to improve your listening enjoyment w/o first upgrading the quality of your source material is an exercise in disappointment.

Good luck
