Monitors for $1500-$2000 with NAD320BEE Integrated

Wait for used Harbeth 7es-3, or smaller harbeths if your room is small. If your going new, try the new line (imagine series) from PSB, they are very good, and not much $$$. I have heard several and the Floorstander for 1200.00 with an NAD int. was impressive.

I second the monitor plus sub approach, a first step wherein you can check out if your present speakers are not the problem.

you know I might be a bit of a old lady here but what exactly does "better sounding" actually mean? is there some aspect of your sound you would like to improve or just speakers that are considered to be all around better? FOr that matter I'm not sure I really know what that means either. How about some size/position constraints and what characteristics you want to improve. If everyone already know all about the Titus speakers I'll shut up post haste!

Thanks for all your suggestions. The room I have the NAD/Triangle system has terrible acoustics--speakers with good bass sound so boomy I can't use them in that room--so I use stand-mounted monitors and they sound "OK". For example, I got some used Vandersteen 2's on Audiogon and they were unlistenable there...I had to move them to my bedroom. I also have some AR3's and some Large Advents, all with same results. Rearranging furniture or other fixes for the room are out of the question so I have to live with the room limitations and when I want to listen most critically I go to my bedroom where the Vandy's are paired with a Creek integrated. What's "better sounding?"--something in between my Triangle Tituses and my Vandersteens. (The Triangles sound marvelous in my bedroom, and it's not just because of the Creek...I've had the NAD hooked up to them in my bedroom)...Thanks...and keep on suggesting! I can use the help!
