Help choosing speakers

I second the Vandersteen 1b or c...I had a new pair of 1Bs years ago (sold after having the factory repair some cat damage) and was amazed at how deep they went...just a great clean sounding speaker and you can find 'em used in good shape with stands for cheap.

$1000 will not obtain the prescribed result if the room is wrong. $10000 might, if you spend it on fancy equalizers and the like.

Tell us about the room and the answers will become relevant.

Asking someone else to choose your speakers is akin to asking someone to name your child. Believe me, I've been there/done that. It didn't turn out well !!!!!!

I think "Clem" is a great name for a boy and "Saffola" for a girl.

Thanks for your suggestions! they're much appreciated.

My amp ATM is a Cambridge Audio 640A V2. I'm kind of used to its sound but I'm not at all impressed by it. I plan on changing for something in the sub 1K as well.

The room will be either a small approx 10' x 14' or a larger x2 more open space room.

@ Tpreaves I don't see what's wrong with asking for advice. I'm just trying to narrow it down as i can't listen to all of them.
