Speakers with built in sub any good?

I am planning to upgrade my speakers. After reading the thread "To sub or not ..." i realize that many are sold on use of good subwoofer for music. Are there any good speakers with built in subs in the $1500-2000 price range or should I get good full range speakers and separate subs later? As always thanks for your help

There are the B&W DM605-S2 that sell for around $2000. 130 watt amplifier in each one to power the bass. See comments on Audioreview.com

B&W created them for situations where it is not physically possible to use a sub properly. You can get information also at their website www.bwspeakers.com I prefer a separate sub, but depends on your budget and taste. The Hsu VTF-2 power subwoofer sells new for $500 direct from the manufacturer. Probably one of the best powered subs for $500 or less new. Still leaves you $1500 to get good main speakers.
