One of the guys at Stereophile (John Marks maybe??) said that the break between bookshelves and towers was something like $3K and everything I've seen myself supports that within reason.
good stand speakers with good low end
I like to keep the purchase under $1,000 a pair. Just curious if anyone has suggestions for good sounding bookshelfs with good low end. I live in condo, so floorstanders are not possible at the moment. NHT classic 3's come up a lot. Klipsh are way too bright for my tastes. I lean toward neutral to warm sound.
