Speakers - Your "Safest" Choice

Hello All: Many of us have limited access/ability to audition multiple speakers brands. That got me to thinking- If one had a budget of $20K max, a solid state amp rated at 125WPC, and listened to all varieties of music (primarily rock, pop, folk), what speaker(s) would you be most willing to recommend to that person and feel confident they would be happy with the purchase?

Would certainly be nicer for 5k but if your goal was to audition speakers, totally unnecessary

jl35: Aren’t the speakers themselves unnecessary?  Logic tells me that most able to spend 20K on a pair of speakers would likely be traveling first class, staying at a 4–5-star hotel and eating in nice restaurants, not including drinks and entertainment. Not to sound snobbish, but I know I would.

jl35: Yes, they are nice.  I asked the salesman that I deal with at PS audio to let me know when their bookshelf speakers came out.  If they're as good as the FR 20 or 30, I'd love to give them try and maybe buy another set of speakers I definitely don't need! 😉
