Speakers - Your "Safest" Choice

I live in S Fl and have spring training right in town and I don`t see $40K speakers selling for $11K and the likes.

To me, it`s pretty much a desert for quality used audio gear down here

First of all, you are not that specific to get good responses.  Why is $20K your budget?  Equipment you will be using?  Many responses here are form people who don't really know that much meaning they have comments that are general and have not had the opportunity to match things together.  For example, Sonus Farber are not for rock.  Please come to our listening room in NJ and we can demonstrate what they can do.  Some of the other generalizations we can also demonstrate with other opinions.  While many people have gone to a dealer or audio show, they have not really heard what proper equipment matching can offer because they have not had enough time hearing things in their own systems and with so many different components.  So while there are some good suggestions, some are generalizations.

Sorry folks, it is simply the truth.

Happy Listening.

I’m not sure where you’re located. Safe and Sound in Chicopee MA is a brick and mortar store. They carry a wide array of speaker brands and modles, all I stock available to audition and immediate delivery.  Chec them out their website’

Sorry I am late to the forum.  The AG website was compromised.  A phisherman.  They fixed it today.  An expenditure like that warrants dealer assistance with system integration, installation, and optimization.  Audition mandatory. There are many excellent recommendations from members.  I did not see my personal favorite- Vivid.  Aesthetics are a personal taste.  I find their designs artistic and pleasing.  I find their sound quality exceptional.  Clarity, integration, dynamics, staging, imaging, and musicality- they have it all.  The Kaya 90 is in your budget.  Better is a pre-owned pair of Giya G-3 S2 which would be slightly below $20k.  Call or visit GTT Audio in NJ.  

I would like to hear more about how to access spring training deals !
