I know PMC is not cheap but heck, are any tower speakers of decent quality ever really cheap?
My Axioms are a great bargain but i certainly cannot say my M60s were cheap per se.

I'm still leaning towards the Tannoy Definition D700s possibly for the future music system but auditioning is the key. If the Tannoys i have at present are any indication of a signature Tannoy sound, then i'm already halfway down a very satisfied road.
The fun part is trying to find some nice pre-pros and amps to drive such heavy sucking 4 ohm speakers.
Couple of names i'm perusing:
Mcintosh
Bryston
Threshold
Arcam
Musical Fidelity
