speaker recomendation

looking for ideas preferably for a mini monitor for low listening levels in a living room as a second system. although i know it is difficult, I would like to have a decent bottom end along with a high end not to bright(when no one is around i may occasionally play at higher volume for myself.) just a few of my thoughts have been the Taylor mini monitors or the Epos els-3. Would like to keep it at a budget of around 1500.

Lots of buzz about the Amphion Argon II. http://www.soundstage.com/revequip/amphion_argon2.htm

Try Spendor S3/5 or S3/5e.

Good Luck!*>)

I second the De Capo i . Though they maybe difficult to find for that price . They seldom come up for sale and usually go fast when they do .

Sorry , just saw that you are using a SS amp . The De Capo's really do much better with tubes .

thanks for the responses. am familiar with most of the recomendations. the taylo mini monitors and the gma europas have both caught my interest but it seems difficult to audition them. i enjoy mainly rock music with occasional jazz thrown in and once again stress that it would be at moderate sound levels.the room is fairly big(20x14)so i wouldnt expect it to fill the room but would like to hear a little bottom end. if anyone can elaborate a little on either speaker it would be helpful. tks
