Loudspeakers for Yamaha ax-596

Hi all,
I just bought a Yamaha AX-596, and was wondering which loudspeakers would fit the best (or otherwise what kind of characteristics I have to look for in a pair of speakers).
Also, considering my quite limited budget, would you recommend a set of second-hand (and therefore older) speakers?
thanks in advance

Cecil Taylor Big Band - Live in NYC!!!

Well this is it, the holy grail which we audiophiles all claim to aim for, namely the sound of live music. And in this case it's one of the living legends of music of the past century who is performing live this week with his 15 piece big band at Iridium in New York City. I'll be there for the first set (and maybe more) on Friday night, where will you be?

This one should not be missed.

No way!

Who gets their issue this early?

I am SO jealous.

This forum has hurt my marriage.

My wife actually starts to get frustrated about ten days into my "Did Stereophile come yet?" questions when I get home from work.

Typical night on day one through seven:

Me: "Honey! I'm home!"

Wife: "Hi, dear, how was your day?"

Me: "Did Sterophile come yet?"

Wife: No, sweetie, not yet."

What is going on with Stanalog ?

I have equipment in for repair with the Stanalog company. They sell and service well tempered turtables. The owner George Stanwick has not gotten back to me about the status of my repair in over 3 months. I sent him a large deposit too. So he has my tonearm and my money and I CAN NOT REACH HIM THROUGH PHONE CALLS OR EMAILS. I am totally frustrated and I want to know if anyone else is having problems with him and do they have any suggestions for me.

Excuse me, but I need to share!

ADS STILL SELLS SOME DARNED FINE LOUDSPEAKERS!

I know, everybody thinks their speakers are the best thing going, but...

If you want a killer little speaker that is built like the proverbial brick out-house, is extremely neutral, quite affordable AND is not just another little mdf box, then you simply must check out these offerings from ADS. In particular, their "HT" line of small speakers and subs.

Insultingly Stupid Movie Physics

Ex-physics teacher John Atkinson pays his kids $1 for each example of bad science they spot in the movies they see. For The Day After Tomorrow, IIRC, he instituted a $50 cap.
