Thanks for all the imput. This is my first time posting a thread and I understand the error of my ways! The room size is about 17x16 with an open corner. I like many different musical genres. I like it fairly loud,as if the band set up in my space.I spoke to Walter lieberman at underwood hifi and I'm considering the emerald physics cs-3's. Am also considering totem forest,and salk songtower qwt's.Space is somewhat of and issue so I think the maggies would be to imposing.Again I thank everyone for their thoughts. Rousosd (DAVE) PS; my budget is under 3000
