I tend to like speakers that can reveal a lot of high-frequency detail. The ACI sapphire IIILE's seem to hold back a bit too much for my tastes.
I just listened to the Focal 807V and was blown away...so much detail and open-ness. Anyone know how these compare (besides being cheaper) to the PSB Platinum M2 or the Pradigm S2?
I recently heard Robert Reina of Stereophile say that he specializes in reviewing low cost speakers and that there are many very good ones out there. I suggest you look up his reviews for Stereophile.
I'll second the VonSchweikert VR-1s. They are truly amazing speakers once they're broken in - about 300 hours. Mine image even better than my VS VR4JRs at 4x the price.
