I own a pair of Phase Tech PC-40 bookshelf speakers wired into my upstairs that I continue to be impressed by. More than a couple of times, friends have asked to pull the grills off the speakers just to take a look at such a small speaker making such big sound. This is the only Phase Tech speaker I have direct experience with, but I know the company has a 'bang for the buck' reputation and may be worth taking a look at.
Best Budget Bookshelf Speakers?
I'm looking into buying bookshelf speakers for a bedroom system, and am trying to decided between PSB Image, Tannoy mX2, Wharfedale Diamond 8, Acoustic Energy Aegis 1, and B&W 303's. I'm currently running a Sony CD/MD deck through the Musical Fidelity X-10D, into an Onix A60 integrated amp, using Wharfedale Opal 30 speakers. Besides the speakers mentioned above, any other recommendations would be much appreciated (Mission, Diva, etc???). Thanks!
