If I bought a new pair of speakers today it'd probably be the MMGs - $600, everybody loves them, and a great return policy if you don't like 'em.  Hardly anything to lose, really.

 

But if you're willing to go used, $600 will go so much farther...  I saw a pair of Infinity (yeah, I'm a fanatic) RS 2.5 speakers go for just $400 on eBay, in perfect condition.  You'd have to spend thousands today to even come close to those.  If I was within a two-day round trip drive of those I would have gotten them.

Yeah, I have had mine for awhile now, and no problems.

No, what I said was they would have to be replaced sooner rather

than later as the reality of cheap speakers would set in.

At 200 I'd put almost any two year old gently used speaker against them, without a doubt.

I've had those exact speakers, they are what they are, and compared to speakers which can be

had for just a little more money are easily shown to be so.
