i am looking to upgrade my current Infinty IL10's bookshelfs with something much better, but I only have $1000 overall for both fronts and center, thus, would like to keep the fronts in the $600-$700 range max. here are some of the choices I have narrowed it down to thus far:
Swan 4.1's ($500/pr)
Axiom M40ti ($560/pr)
B&W DM602.5 S3 ($500/pr)
B&W DM603 S3 (I know, more than $600, but I heard them and sound so good)
Paradigm Monitor 7 ($600)
PSB Image T45 ($550)
Athena AS-F2 ($400)
Energy Connoisseur : C-5 ($550)
Currently, I have only listened to the B&W ones and LOVE them.... but I have heard a lot of good things from the Swan's for the price. I am also confused because the others (Paradigm, PSB, etc) have had high praise from a lot of people and they are within the range.
any help would be appreciated.
