Speakers under $5000 maintained a reputation for quality sound over the last 15 years.


I am curious what speakers at $5000 or less that  have maintained their reputation for great sound over the last 12 years without major upgrades. 

Thank you.

I'll second the Phase Techs.  I have the PC 60 speakers (with subwoofer with built-in crossover) and they sound great.  I did replace the drivers several years ago (the foam surrounds had deteriorated) – the good folks at Phase Tech had them for about $100.00 each (they had to make up the subwoofer for me, but it was apparently no problem).  Still going strong!

No, they are not as good as my current daily listeners (Harbeth P3esr with REL t51 sub), but they only cost $650 (back in '84, equivalent to about $1600 today, about half the cost of the Harbeths/REL).  Amazing value!
