Help me choose which speakers to buy


In a small room (12' x 7') I am currently set up with a Rega P1 turntable and a Kenwood KA-3500 preamp. . .

I am looking at spending in the $150 - 200 range but would like to get a nice clean and crisp sound.

Recommendations?

Ive read some good things about the PSB Alphas... Any thoughts to support or diminish that suggestion?
I would like to put in my 2 cents. For $150-$200 you can pick up a used pair of Energy C-2 (the older model). For the money they are unbeatable. They were on Sterephile's class C recommended (monitor series). They sound much better than B&W
s DM series (601s, 602s) that cost twice as much. Good luck.
A used pair of NHT SB2s might be found in that price range and could be just the ticket.
They image beautifully and the sealed design offers a tight fast delivery. Easy to place with a a
decent amount of bass too.
That's just my opinion.
Good luck.
Take a look at the Usher S-520 bookshelf speakers...Stereophile review is on the web.
