ttowntony- The Avalon Isis are $65k new! I don't think that's in the ball park for Jeff, and certainly out of the league for this comparison. Maybe you meant a lesser Avalon model? However I agree they are excellent (they had better be at $65k!!).
I also agree with your suggestion of C-4's. I recently compared the latest version of the Salons to the C-2's in the same room with the same pieces driving and actually preferred the less expensive C-2's more natural laid back tone and deeper more defined soundstage. The C-4's should be a step up from the C-2's and they go for about $9-$10k used.
