Ok, Mike, but Carver is pretty well up there.

A pair of MMG's for trials?
They are like 6bills.

And a REL sub, 1K.

I agree...

You can pick up a pair of MartinLogan Mosaics for around $2000. They sound like a maggie with nuts in the bass. They use B-G neo series planar drivers for mids and highs.

If you are lucky, you can also score some Aeon i's for around 2000 as they were discontinued.

IMHO, I would try to find a dealer with Mosaics.

Also, give Russ a call at Just Real Music. He has given me advice when I was in a pinch. He also builds custom electrostatic speakers, with both flat and curved panels. They are priced at roughly half what you would find from MartinLogan.
