Best value speakers available


I was intrigued by a thread about buying new speakers in the 10k range, a speaker that just kept poping up was the magnepan 3.6. I agree that that is a super value for the money but then again so are the 1.6's. What are you picks for the best "value" speaker out there. I would prefer not to hear the wilson audio X-1 grand slamm, unless of course you are bill gates! thanks in advance for any comments.

This is all very subjective. Nevertheless, audiophiles seek the best possible [flat, detailed] reproduction of the original recorded sound. After experimenting with several different systems (B & W, Martin Logan, Maggies, among others), I decided to risk a blind purchase of the Newform Research R630 pair (the 30-day return policy helps a lot in that decision).

Not only am I very happy with the result, but I believe that they will sound better still in a bigger room, in my next house. There is nothing comparable in the market, in their price range. To get the same good result, I'd have to go up to B & W's Nautilus 803, at $5,000/pair.
