And iron balls.
didnt say they were better, but for the price they are close. Meanwhile we
need to discount everything you say since you beleive that price matters in
speaker qiuality
Maggies are more "upscale" therefore they sound better.
Sorry but the maggies just didnt get my panties wet. And its not just the
beemers, a set of small Vienna acoustics (1000$) also blew the maggies into
the ditch IMHO
however if you want two hyuge monoliths in your listening room, that look
like a tarp off of a boat, then maggies are your girl, and they had better
be, since any other girl in your life is gonna scoot when she sees' these
things in "her" living room

And just WTF would YOU know about women? If you know 100 times what you know

Ouch! I haven't seen a beating like that since Rodney King.

Here (IMHO) are Steve's strengths (from strongest to weakest):

1) Spelling
2) Audio

Close, Bob. But NO CIGAR!

2) General intelligence
3) Spelling
4) Audio

At least I have seen a woman naked before, which places me well up the food
chain over you(and your mom doesnt count, even though she probably gums you
pretty good)

Hi all,
I'm looking for some good bookshelf size speakers to 'round out'

Thanks for your help.

I recommend you find a Paradigm Dealer. I feel for the money, they
have the best sounding speakers currently available.

I take it by "round out" you already have front speakers and want to add
on to make a full surround sound system. Usually the easiest match is to
buy a set of speakers from the same company and model line.

If so, what do you currently have for speakers?
