I've been searching the classifieds for the last three months, looking for a pair of speakers I could be happy with for the next 10 years, and listening to as many setups as I could, within 100 miles... Fun experiment, but I finally pulled the plug this weekend and got a pair of Usher Mini-Dancer 2's, then spent most of yesterday afternoon playing with room placement, etc. My wife passed through on her way to bed, and asked "so are you happy with the new speakers?" And I replied "I THINK so" -- she said you'd better be..., and shuffled off to bed. I do like these speakers, but 10 years is a long time; I think I may be incurable.
