mainstream sleeper audio products....

I have friend who lives in a rural area...with his only options being driving to a best buy magnolia show room...or ordering something offline unheard...any easily obtainable monitors and sub that would suffice? Thinking Pioneer bookshelves that were the rage a few years back or similiar...he just wants good/above average sound with limited hassle...hence the suggestion...maybe a small mirage/Martin Logan sub? Are the Yamaha servo subs in this range a thought?

It was the Pioneer speaker that S'phile raved over. IIRC, under $200/ea.

Not sure if all Magnolias are the same, but the ones near me have some excellent products, including speakers from Martin-Logan, B&W, REL and Sonus Faber, and electronics from McIntosh, Marantz, Arcam and Primare.

For sure there are better deals and more selection on line and in big cities, but you can certainly pick up high quality kit at Magnolia.

A nice combo is the NHT Classic 3 with their 10" or 12" subwoofer or even a pair of subs. Can be bought for less than $1000. Also any PSB satellite/sub combo.
