Eldulcesol- I've seen the movie and my first line was quoting the judge from that film ;)
ute-friendly speakers?
A mint pair of maggie 3.3R are leaving me, to make room for: 1) more room in the house and 2) a ute that's about to be ambulatory. This means I need to "upgrade" to a speaker that is 1) able to be pushed up near the rear wall and still sound good (the maggies are three feet out) and 2) no unguarded components within 2 feet of the floor (lookout for that caroming ute with a sharp pencil!).
Because it would be too easy, I have to rule out bookshelf/stand combos (yes, there's some WA factor there). Based on audiogon pricing, it looks like I have between 1,500 and 2,000 to spend. I'm not fussy about buying used. The amp is a NAD 125 wpc, with a powered monitor audio sub, and the room is 20 x 30.
Once I discovered the maggies, I never thought I'd let them go, so I have not stayed up on speakers. Is there something that meets my (admittedly picky) critera, and still maintains some of the imaging and openness of the maggies?
