Looking for a great front ported bookshelp speaker recommendation

Hi everyone,

After about a 15 year hiatus from hifi, I'm looking to get back into it. I'm looking for a front ported bookshelf speaker. The reason is that it's going to go inside a cabinet and right against a back wall. My budget is up to $5,000 but the less, the better:) Any advice or guidance would be appreciated.

TIA

You might try PMC's, great transmission line front ported bass from small speakers. Available from The Music Room, should have a trial period.

+1 for ATCs , @soux advice, and avoiding ported speakers in this case. I have ATC SCM7’s that sit on a dresser (decoupled by rubber/wood laminates) that sound great.
