I appreciate the input! I did go to a local High End audio dealer here in town, Listen Up, and listened to the B&W 603s2 AND the B&W 604s! LOVED the 604s! I am convinced I need a 3-way system, as the listening room is 16 X 23' with a ceiling that starts at 8', where the speakers are located, and slopes up to 16'. I believe the B&W 604s would work, and I think the Klipsch would do the job as well, but I think I've re-thought the JBLs, if for no other reason other than their antiquated design. What do you all think about KEF Reference Series Model 2s? ....or do they require bi-amping and or a more powerful amp?
