Short and sweet: I was in love with my old Boston Acoustics T830s for decades. I still respect the hell out of them for natural reproduction of all genres. However, about 3 years ago I replaced them with Canton Ergo 1200DCs. My search is over. Even compared them with Vandersteen Treo CTs costing boatload more. My search is over. YMMV
PS: I still can't bring myself to part with the BAs. They sit off to the side in my basement. Every once in a while I hook 'em back up. What a great price to performance ratio. Too bad my kids don't appreciate this stuff. I am looking for someone who can really enjoy great speakers. Guess I'll have to consider setting up a system in my garage.
