Floor standing speakers under $1500.00


I have a 28 x 22 foot room with vaulted ceiling going from 8' to 20'. I listen to mainly classic rock, rock, jazz and blues. I am presently using a 2 channel 100 wpc Yamaha tuner but will eventually upgrade. I listen to vinyl, cd and internet radio. any suggestions on floor standing speakers. I am looking for a clean, honest sound image. I want the music to speak for itself.

Check out Tekton speakers, Lore, Lore S, M Lore. I recently had a pair of the Pendragons (above your price range) in my system and was amazed! Especially for rock. Absolutely the best speakers I've ever had in my home, and I've owned a couple different Magnepans, Vandersteens, Gallos, etc.

I couldn't keep the Pendragons due to their physical size, but instantly ordered a pair of Lores. I should have them in the next few weeks.

**No affiliation with Tekton**
Silverline Preludes would be worth a look. Or perhaps Monitor Audio RX6 as well. Buying used opens up a lot more options obviously. Best of luck.
Not to hijack the thread, but what made you chose the Lores over the Lore S? Thanks!
Peter,
I think anybody looking for a floor stander under $1500 should be taking a serious look at the Ohm Walsh Micro Tall's. They have a tiny little footprint (6" x 6", I think). They have prodigious bass output especially for their size and a huge, immersive pseudo-omni-presentation that some people really adore. They also come with 120 day home trial, so if you don't like them, you aren't out anything but the return shipping to New York. See the enormous thread on this speaker for lots more information. :-)
