Thanks you to the new responders for their comments
TO: TWOLEFTEARS:
Max Budget $2500- $3000. on "used market"
The following is the system and room size:
Conrad Johnson PV14SL SE pre-amp
BAT VK-200 amp ( 100RMS)
Ayre CX7e mp CD player
Grover Huffman EX speaker cables
Golden Ear Technology model 7 speakers
Listening space: 12X15 with 8.5ft ceilings
Note: Listening space opens into a 12X18 dining/kitchen area divided by a medium size couch. Standard furnishing on walls and floor
I am trying to replace the GET 7 speakers because my current electronics seem capable of better sound via the speakers.
P.S. I never was a big fan of expensive monitor speakers whether 2 way or even 3 way. They are overpriced, for example, Harbeth, Spendor, Sterling, J.M.Reynard, Totem etc.
