Considering used towers under $1000..


I’m thinking about purchasing towers used, I’d like to keep under $1000. Some that repeatedly pop up are Tekton M-lores, and Silverline preludes, among others.

Your experience with the above, or any other suggestions?

(Room is 22 x18, hardwood floors. Power is Rotel RA1070 integrated, 100w per side at 8 ohms, Onkyo CD player, model 7030 I believe)
Thanks...

Rj, there's a certain naturalness I ascribed to my old pair of Tukans, where the piano, cymbals and snare drum sound right to me. I value openness, and nothing to lean like my old Dali Ikons were. For reference, if there Tukans had a bottom they'd be very close to ideal for me. I've read the m lores have that realism or naturalness, but I'm flying blind here without auditioning. Hope this helps
Honestly I wish I could audition the Tekton in Chicago to either confirm our dismiss accordingly. I know they have a in home trial, but last summer I drank the internet Koolaid on another highly touted ID brand, did not like at all, ate a significant ( for me) shipping loss. So I'm trying to be a little more judicious this time.
Soix, definitely worthy of consideration, however, no shipping, local pickup only in Florida, I'm in Chicago
I have a pair of new 2.1 SuperOnes, maybe I should revisit their tower options as well, thank you
