Speaker help under $2,500

Hi eddy1, Are you looking for monitors, floorstanders, monitor sub combo?

Hello,  Mostly will be floorstand.  But if monitors sound better I then will do monitors.  

Thank you,

Without knowing the amp, or at least the type of tube amp you will get, we can't give you meaningful suggestions. 8w class A SETs won't drive the same speakers as bigger KT150, EL34, etc.
The more specific you are about your preferences, the better the suggestions will be...cheers,
Spencer
