Best pair of $ 1500 speakers to match with Rotel?

I hope this isn't too boring of a question but I just bought a Rotel 1072 CD player and am contemplating buying their 1062 integrated amp, which will leave $ 1500. in my small budget for speakers. Any suggestions? I'd consider buying used. I'm afraid the Axiom M80TI's at $1300 are too good to be true. Are they? I currently have B&W P5's that I bought 12 years ago, but they now seem rather polite and lacking bass. Anyone care to share their wisdom? Many thanks!!!

Spend more on a different integrated. Then spend 1K on PSB Stratus Gold i's. Or spend even more on the integrated and buy PSB Stratus Silver I's for around 7-800.00. These are an incredible bargain at this price point. BTW-These are used prices-but there usually available here on A-Gon.

OK-- any suggestions for a "better integrated"? NAD C370? Or?

I love the NAD integrated amps for the money.
I currently own an Audio Refinement Complete and could not be happier.
It sounds good on every speaker I've used and bested many more expensive combos.

Good luck!

Since Axiom has a trial period, why don't you order them and find out for yourself? The reviews of the M80TI's are universally good, but trying them in person is the only way to know if they suit your equipment, your room, and your listening tastes.
