Looking for speakers under 3000.00 used

I am replacing my Martin Logan Ascent speakers. I like the sound but am looking for a larger sweet spot. My system is a Computer to Wyred 4 Sound DAC-2 DSDSE, Rowland Capri preamp and Pass 250.5 amp. Room is 16 x 18 with vaulted ceiling. I listen to all types of music and will use for watching some video. I was looking at Revel F52 and PSB Synchrony 1. Unfortunately where I live there are no audio stores where I can listen. I am hoping for some help from the audiogon community on this one.

The Revel 206 tower is supposed to be special.
You may need a subwoofer at some point, however.

Check out Dynaudio. I had the C1's and C1 sig's and I have to admit they had a huge sweet spot and great dynamics for their size. Are you looking for a monitor or floor stander?

I am looking for floor standers. Thanks for the input so far. I will do some research on some of the speakers mentioned. Looking forward to more suggestions. Has anyone listened the the Revels or PSB speakers I mentioned?

Easy,

look for a (rarely seen - wonder why :-)) pair of PSB Synchrony One's - is your right choice. These are easy to drive, easy to move around and dollar for dollar, hard to beat - especially if you want replacement parts. Classic Infinity's are great but fraught with issues as Melbguy1 outlines.

I've heard many, many speakers and these were up there. Hard to take some strangers word but there's a reason Paul hasn't made changes to this line in many years - unlike what seems like now yearly updates by many others. If it ain't broke ....
