There's also been some speakers that you might have missed if you just read a post recommending speakers at a certain price point. The reason why you might have missed these because maybe they would have been listed at a higher price point than you were looking to spend. But these speakers have been on sale like the Polk Audio Lsim series, or the Canton 596.2 series. Also as of recently the Paradigm series of speakers have gone on sale.
Plus room Acoustics and room Dimensions have a lot to do with what speakers are recommended
