Speakers under $3-4,000?

Hifisoundguy's Bose troll post gets funnier every time I read it. <:-/

Everyone, thank you very much for the responses. The search is on.

James63, do you run the Studios? I have been looking at a pair recently. If you do now or in the past run/ran them, what amps did you use? I am not trying to hi-jack the thread since your comments on them would be worthwhile (hopefully) to both the OP and myself. Thanks

I do not have the Studios I am just a fan. I am using a pair of Thiel CS2.4 I bought used off a local dealer. I like the CS2.4 a lot but I often think I should have bought the Studios used off Audiogon instead because the price difference is marginal...

Now I am just too lazy (hate the hassle) to sell my CS2.4 and grab the Studio.

You might consider the Von Schweikert VR-33 speakers which still sell for $3750.
