looking for a pair of nice stereo speakers for less than $1k

[swicken]

thanks again everyone... i'm seriously thinking about the klipsch synergy III speakers with the dual 8 inch woofers...has anyone ever heard these speakers? i think i'm gonna go out to best buy and check them out.

Nooooo don't go synergy if you're going klipsch, go reference :'(

Their Reference line spanks synergy around.

Agree with aformentioned advice..buy used! For a grand or so you can pick up a pair of PSB Stratus Gold i's..fast deep bass with plenty slam and nothing sloppy. Mid range is first rate and the highs refined, rarely harsh. Well made speaker that can play loud without flinching.
Would also reccomend Vandersteen 2ce. You can by a pair of used one's for around $600 and you would get alot better speaker than the JBL northrige series.
