This are the speakers I picked up



They are huge and heavy and a pain in the arse in every respect except one, you can hear everything, every nuance, the delay of the piano at the end of a note and in the case of a Nina Simone song I was listening to one day, the sound of her music being turned, just the slightest rustle of paper!
It pretty well becomes an addiction though, endlessly changing parts to try and get the perfect sound!

Anyway if you do decide to upgrade go to Canuckaudiomart.com for great second hand gear at 1/3rd the price of new, and trust me late 80's to mid ninties stereo was way better in many ways to post Dolby surround sound kit.
