| When spending less than $5,000 how much of a guide is price? Those speakers are so different in almost every way, really quite far apart in nature. Have you heard these models before?

| looking for a stand mount speaker to match a s/s int amp. Paraneer gave you excellent advise. If keeping both amps, focus on speakers that are good w/the tube integrated which will be lower powered in your price range. Still you must go listen to SOME speakers and tell us what you like about SOME. If not... | |
