What to do? What to do?


I need to acquire speakers for my system (Acurus ACD-11, Aragon D2a2,Aragon 18k, kimber 4pr and pbj). I currently own a pair of BW 620 (free for helping my neighbor move). They've never wowed me with my rock music (which is about 50% of my collection) but I enjoyed listening to chamber and jazz on them. I'm a grad student and this will be my first real speaker purchase, so budget is an issue. What direction should I take in my search for some accurate speakers.

By the way, these are not the greatest speakers for Jazz and Chamber. They aren't bad for Jazz, but for Chamber I don't really care for them.
check out biro technology L/1. absolutely the best bang for the buck in this price range and way above too. these speakers will wow you on both classical and rock. a real bargain for the price. TAS recommended too.
I suggest the Dynaudio Audience 60 speakers. They're floorstanders with a silk-dome tweeter. I've listened to them, and I think you'll be hard pressed to find anything better under $2000. They do everything *very* well (this is not to say they are a jack-of-all-trades-master-of-none speaker). They are excellent in rock as well as orchestral as well as intimate jazz. They retail at $1199. Give them a listen. They may not look exotic, but the company only concerns itself with how well they reproduce music. djjp
Check out the Diva line by Swan.These may be the best value speakers today.My friend just got the 6.1 and they sound and look like they should cost over $2000.They go for $1299 They make a 5.1 which goes for $899 which may be all you need.Check them out at av123.com
I suggest Vanderstein 2CI's or whatever alphas currently follow the number 2. They are easy to drive, play very loudly with little or no distortion, have a great open soundstage, and are very good with all types of music. Best of all, the Vandys are around $1200.00 new and appear in this website for a fraction of the price often. If you buy them, make sure you buy SoundAnchor Stands for a couple hundred bucks more.
