Speaker recommendations for 2,500 or less?

Thanks for the advice.. It's strange nobody has mentioned Proac or Totem, any reason??

Tclipse, I've hear two of the totems and preferred the newforms to them....the newforms are what I own. They are very easy to drive. Speakers are so personal. I use solid state on the newforms. I like some of the older proac models. Now the fun part will be to listen in your own room on your system. Another plus with the newforms are you can have great theatre sound from them as well. The revels would be a good buy, as mentioned. Good hunting, Bluenose

The Proac 1.5 is a great speaker - beautiful mids and hi's,
but I never felt it had the bottom to rock.

Thanks for eveyone's imput... Speaking of monitors whch of them would have the best bottom end for rock music whle remaining smooth and very detailed? I guess I want it all!!

The Taylo monitors which are frequently auctioned on A'gon would fit the bill for detail and bass response. Add a sub like the ACI Titan II and you'd have a system that would rock with all types of music.
