Speakers: $3,000-$4,000 on Audiogon

For your Mcintosh...........Jm Labs Electra 946 will get a huge dynamic range at low level and a deep bass.I never heard the 946 but i do have the 936 driven by a mc-2100 and a pair of mc-225 run as mono....but be carefull you have a very powerfull amp.

Thanks again for the helpful replies. Based partly on the information from this thread, I'm going to have a pair of Dyns this weekend.

I was intending on waiting until December to purchase the new speakers but I decided to click on the "Wanted To Buy" link here on Agon. There was somebody who wanted to purchase a pair of CDM 9NTs in a red cherry finish - and the buyer lived in the same city! :0. We all know that buying and selling used audio equipment can at times be a minor hassle, but when it comes to speakers, it can be much more than that due to the weight and cost of shipping etc. Coincidently, there is also a local seller offering a pair of the Dynaudio Contour S3.4's. It isn't the maple finish I would prefer but the opportunity to buy and sell large floorstanding speakers locally cannot be turned down. Given the size of my room, a small part of me believes that the S5.4's would fill out my room to a greater extent that the 3.4's. However, I'm sure the 3.4s will be superior to B&Ws in every conceivable way.

Hello adamg. 

The same conception as bookshelf speakers made:

Perhaps look for speakers from a different angle...
Top speaker designers/engineers list..Andrew Jones, Richard Vandersteen, Kevin Voecks, Jim Salk, Bill Dudleston, Alon Wolf, etc..
I tend to look much more at the guy who made the speaker rather than models and manufacturers..
