thank me later  :)

Anyone: thoughts about JBL 4429s? or SONY M3s?

Selah Audio "Tempesta " is a fine 3 - way large monitor speaker. They are well designed and sound great. 

A few that haven't been mentioned yet:

• Bryston Mini T
• Wharfedale  Linton Herritage 
• Wharfedale Elysian 2
• Wharfedale EVO 4.2

Have a soft spot for JBL 4311's - my 1st quality hifi purchase in 1981. So much depends on your budget as @soix said. I'm more into 2/ways and find most better pieces can do as much if not more then a 3/way design anyway so, let me add this though... Holt Hill Audio in Boston make some damn fine monitors. Listened to their Cionnsaile (sp?) on Friday when dropping off a driver for repair. Absolutely amazing 2/way big & boxy stand mount speakers. Had them singing with a big Plinius integrated and they thrashed everything there including some incredible highly rated vintage systems. They are $1500 bucks and the fit and finish is super, albeit fire-engine red is not my thing. They can custom paint them any color you want and come stock in black high gloss finish. How about a set in Shelby Blue with white racing stripes, "yep" said he can do it for a bit more $$. Not gonna list a link here but u, (everyone) should google them and visit their site; something pretty special gong on there. Just my opinion
