Looking for recommendations for speakers to listen to as possible replacements for my Monitor Audio PL 500's? My room is 20' X 26'.

It looks like you just got your Clarus Crimson speaker cables, but I may suggest demoing a pair of the MIT HD90 or HD120 biwire. I think you'll get more apparent detail from a significantly quieter background. There is a reason Magico and Wilson and others use MIT cable at shows. Great looking system!

Joe Abrams has a pair listed here at about $2800. Also watch ebay. I was more mentioning a relatively lower cost cable change as an alternative to changing out your speakers (if you generally like the PL500s). Demos of cables are easier than in-home demo of speakers. I’m sure the Clarus are very good in their own right, but I think the ’detail’ of the MITs is their selling point (and what it sounds like you’re looking for more of from your PL500s).
