I just completed building my own loudspeakers about 2 months ago...I'm still tweaking them, but even in their current state, I like them better than anything I've heard over the past 10 years...I too tired of seeking out audio nirvana, only to find disappointment with the sound quality of most systems, and dismay at the high prices for loudspeakers, some of which used off-the-shelf components....
I built my system, based on the Great Plains 604 driver, for less than $3K, and that included having the cabinets made by a craftsman...I'd put them against anything under $20K...
It's not nearly as easy as it seems, but if done with care, the results can be spectacular...
