Killer Floor Standing Speakers under $4000 for Rock?

Golden Ear Tritons are ridiculously good for the $. I hear them year after year at shows and I'm always amazed. Just heard them at NY show this past fall. Wow.

Has anyone actually listened to the Tyler PD 100's mentioned earlier in this thread? I looked them up and they may be what I am looking for as my music/home theater mains. First hand opinions ?  thanks  Rob

The speakers I've heard in that range that really rocked and did everything well are Vandersteen Treos (over budget at $6,900; but I'm told the 3A has the same character at $4,775 - street price may be less.) and the Canton Ergo 1002DC. You can't get the Ergo 1002 any longer; but you can get the Reference 5 DC from Amazon for $3280/pair. That's pretty astounding since they went for $10,000 when they came out in 2008 and are actually part of the Canton Vento Line which are one higher than the Ergo. You should really take a look! I've considered Tektons. When I spoke to the owner he recommended the SEAS Pendragon or Lore-S for rock in a large space. Not sure if those models are still available. I just didn't want to be on the hook for a few hundred in shipping if I didn't like them. I'm far from them.

Gotta give another thumbs up to Legacy Audio Focus 20/20's. There was a comment about driving them with SS not measuring up to tubes. Can't comment on the tubes but my Plinius SA-103 sounds awesome through them!

@falconquest  - have to agree. I've driven our FOCUS SEs with McCormack DNA-1, Wyred 4 Sound mAMP monoblocks, and even a Sanders ESL. I have yet to try tubes, but I'm consistently blown away by the performance of Bill's loudspeakers with solid state.
