$3k speaker system

Check out the Ah recommended systems and the recent review of the RBH Sound system. Axiom Audio, Onix Rocket, and Paradigm Studio are also good options in your price range. Check out $1k subs from Axiom, SVS, and HSU.
Audiogon is also a good source for slightly used high end gear.
If you plan on spending that much money, you should probably let your ears decide.

Tell us about the ones you auditioned and what you liked and did not like about each. I think you will get more acurate advice from us knowing that.
