for $650 and an Elemental Designs A2-250 subwoofer for $350. If you truly listen to music more than watch movies then the Elemental Design A3S-250 for $350 would be a good alternative subwoofer.

their products in your own room, with your own equipment and program material. If it doesn't work for you you are only out return shipping. Not a bad outlay for a proper audition.

Elemental Designs offers a 30 day trial period, but will extend that if someone needs a few extra days to evaluate their products.

Jackfish and others

I realized that it would be good to start building a quality system by going with a pair of good towers. The amount of reading and discussion with dealers put me on this path.

So the budget is $1200 for a pair of good towers

i have the following:

  • Bowers and Wilkins 684
  • PSB Image T6
  • Paradigm Monitor 11 v6
  • Paradigm Monitor 9 v7
  • Martin Logan Motion 12 (with proper amp and a sub)

Which is your favourite and why?

to you. That said, I do like the PSB Image T6 of those you listed. I've heard all but the Paradigm Monitor 9s and Martin Logan Motion 12, and the PSB do more right than wrong compared to the others.
