Speaking of Gallo, the 3.1 reference is well within your budget used, and I have heard them sound fantastic with Sim Audio gear.
There is a review of the PSB Imagine T in Stereophile - thanks to Kal for pointing it out - it looks impressive and we are talking excellent value.
If you have the right room you can get a pair of K Horns for that price. Howard
wow! Thanks for all these great ideas! I really really appreciate the info. Happy new year to you all.
Blazerfan,

Are you in Portland? If so, some great stores in your area to demo speakers - Fred's carries Gallo, Paradigm, Thiel and Totem. Stereotypes also in Southeast is a nice store with knowledgeable and low pressure staff that carry a number of the products discussed above. Pearl carries Dynaudio, which I assume you've already heard.
