Speakers for $140 or less
Hi all,
I have a new project. I'm looking to create a home theater based on a pair of speakers available for about $150, preferably even less. Obviously not going for audio nirvana here, just something serviceable with relatively clear dialogue, decent bass. Really should be a floorstander. Is there anything in the used market that might be particularly good, or should I just go the garage sale route? It'll be driven by a mid-90s Rotel receiver, about 60 watts.
Thanks!

If your or anyone else for that matter live around Huntsville,AL. I have a pair of EPI 2 ways w/8 in. woofer from early 70's. They have good tonal balance equal to about the Infinity Q series of the late 80's and heavy. $25 and they are yours. I bought them from a secondhand store. Replacement parts also available for these, not that they need parts. |
I have a pair of Infinity Entra One's that are excellent for the money. They originally sold for ~$400 MSRP, but appear on ebay for <$100 now. Excellent low end for a stand mount, and once broken in they're very good. |
