I would suggest you audtion a pair of MG-1.6s that sell for about $1900.00 and are still one of the great bargains of the audiophile world. They have many wonderful sonic virtues and offer much of the performance of much more expensive speakers. I agree with what Chadnliz said about the ET-LFT VIIIA, their also terrific speakers at a killer price, but when I audtioned both speakers I found the Maggies to be slighty more cohesive top to bottom than the ETs because of the ET-LFT VIIIAs use of a bass cone driver along with planar panel. Both have the planar "magic" of sounding more like real music and would bring you great pleasure. Hope this helps.
Please Reccomend Good speakers for $2000 - $2500
I have been an avid audiophile for quite some time and am looking to upgrade my speakers. I am unfortunately on a very tight budget. I have a Cambridge Audio Azur 640C CD player, and a 120 wpc NAD integrated amp. Cardas Cross cabling throughout, and a Monster 5100 Power Conditioner. Currently I am using Definitive Technology (stifle the groans please :) Power Monitor 700's on Sumiko Stands. They are the best speaker I've ever had, but nowhere near the best I've ever heard. I would sell them and some other stuff lying around, chip in some more dough and upgrade. It is a small room, and I tend to prefer soft tweeters and Danish drivers in general but I am open to ANY AND ALL reccomendations. I am not afraid to go used either. Thanx :)
