What is a good bookshelf

Krell Resolution 3. The Resolution series is no longer made, you probably can pick up a used pair for $2k. They originally listed for $4,000, and went up to $5,000 by the time they went out of production. I have lived happily with mine for four years. The 8" midbass driver gives an added weight to the sound that most standmounted speakers in this price range don't have. And the Vifa ring radiator tweeter is very good.

You should really listen to some time/phase coherent speakers, particularly Green Mountain. I have listened to and owned a variety of bookshelf speakers but have found nothing to compare to GMA's - In your budget range you could pick up some Calistos.

Ok I took my speakers to audio shop yesterday and had him check them out. Tweeters and woofers are good. Crossover is fried according to him. Anyone know what a ball park repair would run? I may just sell them and let whoever buys them repair them. I would consider offers at this time. I do have the matching stands. Speaker cabs are in great shape, one of the stands has a nick on the side when I moved to my current location. So if anyone is in search of the mini's and don't mind having the crossovers replaced feel free to make an offer. I do have the original box for them but have no idea what I did with the literature.

I checked out focal's 726's while I was there. I may lean towards the 716's as a replacement instead. Or the PMC bookshelves. I am going to visit a store that sells the PMC's this week and see if I like those.

Thanks for the tips on speakers.

I did order the replacement crossovers for the mini's.

I would like to still sell them if any is interested.

I decided to go back to towers. After listening for a couple hours I can't understand why I went to bookshelves in first place lol. Oh well.
