Best floorstanding speakers less than $500

Any thoughts on sub-$500 floorstanders? Am I better off going with bookshelves at that price point?

Amp is a tube based Onix SP3 MKII. I can get a new pair of Wharfedale Diamond 9.6's for around $425 right now. Any thoughts? I don't have any issues with going used either!

Uncledavid,

I have used the 9.6 Wharfedales with the Onix SP3 and it is a really nice combination. I moved the system to the bedroom and am now using the 9.2's and I'm very satisfied. With that system I'm using Anti-Cables with excellent results. I say if you have room for the 9.6's to go for it.

Used Triangles go for insane prices.

I think a Vadersteen 1 would give you very good performance with decent bass extension.
