looking for tight powerful bass: Mirage or Deftech

I'm looking for a good multipurpose speaker with good sound , tight and powerful bass.

I'm looking at the OM5, M3si and Definitive Tech 2000, 3000, 7000, 7001...

Which one is better for the money?

How are those compare to VR4.5, Legacy Sig, Genesis 5...?

Thanks.

they compare as an ant with an elephant...:-)
if you want something OK in-between, I'd choose from Paradigm or PSB.

Well a key to bass is how the amp controls the woofer. I had the 3si 12 years ago. A pretty nice speaker in its time. Ants and elephants ain't that far off.(First group to second group)--- Maybe a sub to keep the bass request intact and the dollar spending in control.??

How is the Totem Forrest compared to Genesis G500? I would guess these are different animal compared to DefTech7000 right?

Thanks.
