I purchased a used pair of Snell Type D speakers about 3 years ago and recently saw a pair here on Audiogon going for about $700.
I still feel there a good value and I still have mine.
Tannoy Sensys DC2. Dual concentric drivers and a supertweeter for under 1k used. The only compromise is a vinyl exterior but I would rather the money be in the drivers and crossover where it belongs. In my room with my system I prefer it to past speakers from B&W, Snell and Martin Logan.
If possible, you should try to audition a pair of Vandersteen 2ce's. Certainly not everyone's cup of tea (but then again, what speaker is?), but I've found them to be very satisfying.
