Thanks for the inputs, please keep it coming.

The PSBs are really nice, I remember hearing them a couple of years ago, but I haven't seen any around here. I checked their dealer locator and they're scarce down here.

For the intended use for these speakers, I would like to be able to listen to them first, but its not an absolute requirement. If these were my main speakers, I wouldn't think of buying without a good deal of critical auditioning, but for speakers in this range I can be flexible.
www.saturdayaudio.com for PSB $299.00 pair of B25's you can't go wrong.

solomr2,

What speaker did you end up purchasing?
I haven't purchased any yet. My inlaws have been with us for 2 weeks and just went home a couple of days ago, now I can start auditioning some of these ideas you guys have porposed.

I'm slightly leaning toward the PSB, simply because I have heard them before and I'm familiar with them, but that could change based on listening.

Wow, thanks for the link. That seems like a great price on the PSBs. I've never heard of Saturday Audio, are they reputable?
Yes, they have an excellent reputation, are honest, and besides having many good brands and offering good deals, they also are Monitor Audio's official clearance center for the USA, which says alot about who they are. They only sell A-Stock items, unless you buy from their clearance, used, customer trade-ins, demos, etc. in which case they will clearly let you know what you are buying. SA is a hybrid, B&M store and internet. As you can tell from their poorly developed website they are more geared towards walk in business, meaning that you get that personal treatment prior to purchase; even by phone or e-mail.

A month ago I bought my PSB's from them, and they sent me a paypal invoice within 30 minutes of agreeing which PSB's I needed. Invoice was correct as to quoted price, color, models, etc. Paid immediately, they confirmed payment in about an hour, and shipped within 24 hours. When ready to ship they noticed that they ran out of black B15's and gave me an option of waiting a few days for them to receive the new shipment, or for them to ship B25's from their stock at the same price. Other companies wouldn't have done this. My speakers arrived in perfect condition in their unopened original boxes, and with serial numbers clearly marked on the boxes. I have already register them with PSB.

My experience with them was excellent, and here I read from other people that it has been the same for them.
