I think my other bang for the buck thread for bookshelf speakers was a success so let's keep that train chugging along with tower speakers. And let's assume those looking at this thread want something plug and play without the need to build them first. I can do some amazing work with just a circular saw and a straight edge and clamps for a rip fence but when it comes to making things pretty I as well as countless others in this hobby just don't measure up. Let's face it, not everyone wants to diy their speakers especially if they have to look at them in the house. And let's not get into how picky the significant other can be. Let's stick to towers that punch well above what they cost and as a guideline keep the price under $1000 for the pair all said and done. Hopefully this thread will be helpful to many people. Also, if you can give insight on tonal signature of the speakers that would be great.
