Can I get "Great" used speakers for $1800??


I got only have $1800 to spend on "used mint" speakers. Can I get something "great" for my money??---- something that is musical, accurate, coherent with tight bass and good soundstaging. I see a lot of good stuff on Audiogon for $2800-3000, but just can't hack those prices now. Can I get close to that "performance" level for $1800?? What will be missing?? I listen to lots of classic rock, big band, and jazz. Thanks, Jimbo

I just saw a pair of Van Schweikert VR-3s offered on Audiogon. This is a great speaker for the money.
I just bought a pair of Sony SS M9's and continued to be amazed by how good they sound. I bought them to tide me over till I had the money for a pair of Watt/Puppies or Soundlabs, but I'm not sure anymore if I need to change speakers again. I only paid $1100 for these floor standing nearly full range beauties.
I second the M20s, new or used in good condition.

Nrchy, you got a 16,000 speaker for 1100!? Sure, if he can find a deal like this, he's got great speakers for less than 1800 but this is most likely quite rare.
PSB Stratus Gold i's- 1200.00-1400.00 These are a steal at retail prices(2700.00) and there gorgeous to boot.
