I cannot make a recommendation in your price range, but I do like you sense of humor. Happy Hunting!
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?

I have multiple pairs of Revel speakers, all floorstanding. I Have some large Ushers that worked great in my 27’x16’x15’ room. Go listen to the ps audio speakers: the fr30’s, and fr20’s. I also use ps audio equipment. Take a trip to ps audio in Boulder to listen to their speakers. You already have some of their equipment. Ps audio has an in-house trial program but you probably won’t be sending them back. Same goes for the larger Revels or Ushers. Or Go to some audio shows to hear many different speakers, then work with the dealer for a 30 day in house trial. |
For me, both ProAc and Audio Physic speakers are great all-rounder speakers with either tubes or solid state. I have owned various models of both brands and still own the ProAc D15 and the Audio Physic Avantera+. Love both with all kinds of music. I heard MoFi Sourcepoint 8 at a show a couple years ago and were amazed at how great they sounded for the price. They are not as aesthetically pleasing as ProAcs and Audio Physics but they played everything really well. |
