Rega R3's are hard to beat for the money. Love mine. They're in your price range.
Floorstander suggestions to replace Usher S-520s..
My current setup is [a million different digital devices]--->switchbox---->headroom microDAC--->Rotel RA1062--->Usher S-520s.
This setup was designed for my somewhat large bedroom, where I did most of my listening. However, I have since moved to Santa Clara. I felt like the Usher's weren't filling the room entirely. So I went down to Century Stereo and listened to some B&W floorstanders, and they even had my exact RA1062 for me to audition them with. I was completely blow away. The upgrade here sounds huge. I was listening to the B&W 683 and 684.
So I started looking around audiogon for some deals on used stuff and I found some b&w P-5s and some 602s3s, both which I am quite interested in. As you can tell, my budget is probably no more than 700, i would prefer used and I want a floorstander and know very little about floorstanding speakers as pretty much all of my research has been done on monitors. Anyone have any suggestions for other speakers I should be considering?
