Hawkson,
I would have to echo the recommendations for Monitor Audio for your needs. I have Axiom M60's in my game room (love them) and Monitor Audio Silver 2's (bookshelves) on the first floor. I love the MA's as well..but in a different way. The M60's are more accurate, detailed, great for most of my CD's. The MA's aren't quite as detailed, but for a bookshelf speaker have an incredibly full & much more forgiving sound. I think the MA's probably are less accurate and perhaps "color" the music slightly, but they sound great, especially with the marginally recorded CD's in my collection.

Good luck.

SRV's "Live at the El Mocambo" DVD is awesome. Got that one?
Ditto to Pablo's post, BTW.

What color are your 60's? What state or country do you live in? How much do you think would want for them? I may be interested.

Wow. I didn't know he had 18 CDs.

I think I have 6-7 discs, one LP and a couple of cassettes somewhere. My personal favorite, top to bottom, has got to be "Couldn't Stand the Weather". The "Family Style" CD is one I used to not like so much, but the recording really shines on Axioms.
