How many NICE looking high end floor standing speaker are there at present


Hi, 
Sometimes when I dream, imagining of replacing my current 1997 Burmester 961 speakers, before maybe COVID19 is sending me to an early grave - I'm practically only stumbling on ugly often even like somehow crippled looking speaker creations.
Test will say, sounding fantastically gorgeous and - looking like 💩. 
This, or par tout looking like some or other children's coffin ⚰. 😥👻

Not for the life of it, can I imagine ever having some such 'creation' invading my daily living space. Ever.

Talking 'bout a BAD WAF situation, I say.

Some makers are trying to improve on this tragic situation with creations looking far too anatomical or something alien👾 fruit thing hanging off a tree... handle an' all. 

Is there no hope out there at all...? 🤔

So can one savely move on forgetting about a replacement, still in this here life, and saving the money 💰 ?

Well, the budget <= max 20k $ lets say, so I won't risk starving before the lockdown will end ever. 😱

In other words: Michelle say's "I don't chew my cabbage twice". You're welcome (not that you needed my help) 😄

Aesthetics be damned!

What you need is a nice 12" woofer mounted on the front of a nice wide baffle, which will improve wave launch and step response, to say nothing of your reservations about bass.

Yahama NS-5000, Spendor Classic 100, Harbeth 40.2, Graham Audio LS 5/5 all fit the bill.

And please exercise more care in referencing people's A'gon handles.

Yayyy!!! I win, I win!!!

What do I get for winning?  I’ll take a pair of those beautiful burmesters!!  PM me if you need my shipping address 😆

Oh man, it’s hard leaving some of these on the table but I’m trying to be a better person lately 🤷🏼‍♂️
