help me decide speakers for two channel audio

Currently deciding between B&W 802 Nautilus, Wilson Audio Sophia 2. Von Schweikert VR5. Driving them with EAD sig preamp and lexicon two channel amp, using musical fidelity CD player. Buying used so auditioning not possible. Can consider any other brands in the same range.

Another vote for the Wilsons. I had the Nautilus 802's before and thought they were very good until i heard and tried other speakers. You can get a way better speaker for the amount of money you spend on these. They are ok to look at which is about it.

I'll second the Vandersteen 5. But I would not buy a speaker of this quality with a listen first.

If your listening room is small to medium size, Wavetouch Grand Teton speaker may be better suited. GT is preferred to Avantgarde and Magico Q1.
