What is a good all around high quality speaker to purchase?

I'm looking for a high performance all around musical speaker. My previous speakers are:

Bose 501 - I was young and they served a purpose

Infinity SM150 - terrible from the start

Boston Acoustics T1000 - actually a nice all around speaker

Polk SDA-SRS1tl - loved the full sound, not accurate at all

Thiel 2.3 - Very dry sounding

B&W N802 - perhaps my favorite, but needed to be played loud

Thiel 3.7 - I think Jim's cancer affected his hearing

B&W 802D - 1st gen, still have.....please stop my ears from bleeding

What do you suggest?

Depending on your room size, you may not need to go that high. All F&F's down to the 170's kick arse. Each model that goes up, kicks a little more ass and has more bass. The 570's and 670's are the sweet spot for all around kick arse and bass. If you have a bigger room, then the 770's deliver more bass. So, it all depends on your room size which speaker would suit you the best. I'd check out the website and contact 11Stereo.com who is the N.A. distributor for F&F.
