Slinker - I just upgraded to Ohm Acoustics Walsh 2000. They are a little too expensive at $2800/pr, but the 1000 model comes in at $2000/pr. With a subwoofer, they would probably work well in your room. Cubic footage ranges for each model (without a sub) are listed on the Ohm web site. You get a 120-day in-home trial, and get all your money back, less shipping, if you don't keep them. I am very happy with mine, and I am keeping them. I bought a smaller pair of Ohm Walsh speakers as surrounds, and will eventually add the matching center channel. Especially without a sub, the Ohms do like a lot of wattage, though.
Best Speakers new/used for around 2k
I'm looking for the best speakers for around 2k. I'd like your thougths or insight to speakers I've listed or any I might be missing. I listen to primarliy 50% 2 channel and 50% HT. The room is about 20 x 20 and has two openings. I have a Denon 2809 that I know I will have to either replace or upgrade with another Amp. I've heard just about all of these except the Gershman (but they get glowing reviews), 1.7 (obviously) and Zu.
