Speaker vs. Room Size

I, too, agree that you can't go wrong with the B&W805N, but I doubt that you will ever find them used for near $1000. I would stay away from planar speakers as they need a large room to really open up. Remember they fire front AND back.
I am a big lover of B&W speakers for many reasons. I own big B&W's but if I had your room, there is no question, I would own the 805N.
Buy them and you will be happy!

Something you might find used in your price range, Spendor SP 1/2, should be on your short list also. These "BBC" monitors have been used with great success by many, (down the road you can add a subwoofer for the sub 50Hz magic.) Good luck!

Check out the Joseph 7's.A monitor with decent bass that won't set you back as much as 805's.

I agree with most of the other suggestions here. Stick with something that is "reasonable" in size i.e. no large multiple arrays with drivers spaced far apart. I would also avoid something that is very strong on low end. As such, the B & W's that were recommended should work fine. The "oldy" Spica's ( 50's & 60's ) are VERY well suited for this type of music also and won't set you back much cash either. Any type of "monitor" type speaker like the Spendor's, Roger's, etc... would also be a prime candidate. Good luck and let us know what you end up with. Sean

Dynaudio makes some excellent sounding small speakers.
