good used speaker


I would like to know what would be a good speaker in the used market for 500.00-800.00. I currently use Kef Q65.2 and feel that it is time to upgrade. my system is a meridian 502 preamp, marantz sm17-sa, rotel RCD-975 cd player wired with straight wire maestro interconnects and kimber speaker cable. Any advise would be very helpful. Thank you

Thank you for the input. I have not gotten out to see what Missouri has to offer in the audio market place. I am not in a good location to audition the items I would like to listen to. I do like the Klipsch RB-75's, I do like vienna acoustic's sound as well. What i do not like about the Kef Q65's is that I have always noticed a disconnect in the mid to lower frequency range. like the speaker is missing a small part of the information in the transition from mid to low frequency. If that makes any sense. I have had the KEF's for 7 years and paired them with lots of various amps and preamps and cables, only to find the same region missing. I have moved several times as I am in the military and used many different rooms. Same behavior. So that is what has encourged me to look for a change the most. I would like more energy and better, detail, perhaps better timing. I would also like to have a better image front to back space around the musician. Thank you all again for your inputs.

Any number of Totems would probably fix what bothers you about the KEFs, but how much bass and volume do you need and how big is your listening area?

If you would be happy with the Klipsch RB-75's bass, you'd probably be fine with Totem. The Totem's won't be as sensitive, but they will energize your listening area more uniformly.
