Best Towers Under $1500 for beginner system
Focal Electra 926 or 936. You may find them here for $1500 sometimes. They were $4200/$6500 respectively when new about 5 years ago. They will allow you to hit it hard when you want to. I had them before moving into Utopia line. 
McIntosh MC501 vs Wyred SX1000
