Hi

I just changed my speakers from Thiel cs 2.3 to AP Avanti, but i miss the thiels resolution.
The avanti has god resolution but absolutly not enough.
I love it when you here just about all there is to here, every little sound gives you information about how deep, tall the room is. It givs you a deeper sence of transportation to the event.

I guess i am an analytical kind of guy, but not so that i gets bright and unpleasent.

So now im serching for speakers with high resolution, any ideas?

No electrostatic speakers.

I have a $3,500 budget to get a 2 channel system. I think that an integrated amp is the way to go, given my budget. NO rock n roll, or rap, so loud is not important. What are the major contributors to sound quality in an integrated amp (watts per channel, THD, total whats,etc)? How much power do I need (its for my 20x20 family room and NOT part of a home theater system).

I do want floor standing speakers and the music sourse will be a new CD player.

Thanks for any reply and also if you have any product recommendations.

I've read the reviews of the 360 and the 150. How about the 250?

The reason I am asking is because of my living room dimension. It's basically 3.5m (11.5') back to front, speakers are 2.2m (7.2') apart and 0.8, (2.6') from right window and left side opens into dining room. I'm just afraid the 360 will be boomy. But I really like the bass extension at a friend's place, which is about 4m (13.1') back to front and speakers placed 0.6m (2'), and this sounds great.

Anyone can help me out? Thanks in advance!

In my quest for a new sound system, I listened to Infinity Beta 50 . Although these speakers are listed at $499 ea. at circuit city , however, honestly I did not found them exceptional. So I am planning to take a leap of faith and buy Infinity Primus 360 without really listening to these.
