Looking for floorstading Non-tower speakers


Hey everybody,

 I  absolutely despise the look of tower speakers. I am running EPI 150's that I bought from the original owner(1970ish) They are all original and sound pretty darn good. I want to upgrade my speakers in the $2000 range. I have found the Forte III and JBL l100 classic but they are $4000. I am thinking about the Wharfedale Linton Classics but do not know lots about them. Any experiences or feedback? I also thought about rebuilding the EPI's with the kit from Human speakers. I just wonder if I should rebuild first and if I am not satisfied upgrade to the Lintons? Any other floorstading speakers that have a more traditional look?

Thank you in advance

I think you're on to something with the Lintons.  They have had a series of wonderful reviews, and I think they represent excellent value for money.  I believe you might be able to try them at home on a trial period from somewhere like Crutchfield.
