BEST SPEAKERS AT A REASONABLE PRICE

Magnepan 1.7i

You'll need a load of power and a big square room with walls behind them though. 

@tblanka ...Keep the Onk for awhile (I looked up the specs...it's far from 'ghastly', y'all. *S* Stop pushing the bias....), and buy the speakers you Want and Like the sound of....

(Currently that model is $200~350 on eBay....just for reference sake...)

You can use your sub with the 'newbies' and make the call:
Love It....or List It. ;)

Play with your space like all good audi's ought to...right? *G*

THEN (and only when), make the call on 'separates'....and what the budget might cope with. *S*

If the 'home system' can't 'do' NPR on the weekend in my local focal locus....On Demand.....it makes for a 'long weekend' and not necessarily pleasant at times....

As is said:
"Your Results May Vary...."  
I don't know yours...;) *L*
Happy hunting/listening....

...I'm a big fan of the KIS principal.  I only add the 2nd S if I think it's deserved.... ;)

Speakers are and will always be the Biggest Modifier of your experience.

Going 'integrated' at the same time inserts another variable into your equation...which, IMHO (millercarbon, please Note..*s*) has already become a whole new one by nature...

Again....MHO....and I'll stand with it.

No simple answer.  It really depends on your system, your room, and your listening preferences.  There are some good bargains to be had in used floorstanding speakers, if you don't mind a nick or a scratch.  You can usually end up paying half or less.  A used set of La Scalas?
