Advice on speakers?


Looking for a pair of floor standers in the $1500 to $3000 range. I don't mind used ones. My room is 30'x18'. I will use for both music mainly and home theater. I plan to buy separate pre pro/amp later this year. I have a Nakamichi av-10 now. Thanks.

I am planning to get new equipment. I am leaning towards a parasound 5 ch/2ch amp and their hdp70 proc. I am still looking at both B&K and NAD also. ANy ideas?

Thanks for the input. I agree about being being able to listen to them. The problem is that here in Mobile, AL the selection is very limited. I may have to finally decide by looks and reviews.

Are you saying the cause for the muffled sound was the B&K or the speakers?

So you are recommending separates, such as amp and separate pre-pro or getting a two channel amp for stereo and a five channel system for home theater? I am sometimes slow and just want to make sure I understand exactly. Thanks.

Thanks on the info. Please feel free to providing me with more ideas. I will look into the separate amp ideas for stereand home theater. I am only planning on 5 channel anyway. Maybe a 2 and a 3 channel?
I will look into the Mirage also. I listened to some Krells the other day and found them to have too much of a "live" sound for me. The Monitior Audios had a cleaner sound, but these were powered individually. I am not sure I want to go that way. Thanks.
