Floor standing speakers under $1500.00

Silverline Preludes would be worth a look. Or perhaps Monitor Audio RX6 as well. Buying used opens up a lot more options obviously. Best of luck.

Not to hijack the thread, but what made you chose the Lores over the Lore S? Thanks!

Ketchup,

So as not to hijack this thread, I messaged you my response.

Peter,
I think anybody looking for a floor stander under $1500 should be taking a serious look at the Ohm Walsh Micro Tall's. They have a tiny little footprint (6" x 6", I think). They have prodigious bass output especially for their size and a huge, immersive pseudo-omni-presentation that some people really adore. They also come with 120 day home trial, so if you don't like them, you aren't out anything but the return shipping to New York. See the enormous thread on this speaker for lots more information. :-)

Revel F-12........ One of those "under the radar" speakers that may really put a smile on your face ! Good Luck, and Happy Listening.
