Curious what people think is the best "value" high end speaker (~5K to 15K)


I am on a long search for speakers and just curious what people think is the best value both new or used in speakers ranging from around $5000 to $15000? I have a set of Paradigm S8's (V1) and love them but looking for another set for another set in a different listening area (25 x 20?, maybe larger).  I love the full sound of JBL's and looking for something in that range (it also helps that JBL's seem to hold their value better than most, which will be a consideration). The only drawback to JBL is footprint.  I prefer a smaller footprint which is why after reading I hope to listen to several B&W 800 series but open to suggestions across the board.  used Watt Puppies? Revels?  I am curious about peoples experience with McIntosh XR100's.

I’ve had a lot of speakers hooked up to my McIntosh tube system and the best by far are the Harbeths. They really incredible speakers. I think the 30.1 or 40.1 would work well for you.

Other than that, I believe the PSB Imagine T3’s are another to consider. I heard these at a friend’s and was pretty blown away; bought a pair of Imagine T2s for my McIntosh solid state system and they sound fantastic.

Lastly, I sometimes swap in a pair of vintage Klipsch Forte’s and am always amazed at how big their sound is, especially with little power. Fun.

Good luck and remember, Hell is having everything you want.
