Best floorstanders under $999 for low power SET amp?

Thanks

I still very much like mine.

Still want to play with the crossover too, but I'm a pretty big nerd when it comes to this stuff. I also put in a Duelund resistor, and cotton insulated wire. I'd really like to try Duelund caps, but I think they're too much for me now, I'll probably put them in my pendragons when I get them ;)

If you can afford it I really do think Erics recommendation of SIO would be the way to go, he does know what he's doing. A SIO cap in my preamp seemed to bring out more depth, soundstage and dynamics that the lores had to offer if that has any correlation. They're also very resolving in the highs and smooth in the "live" area.
Didn't mean to get political and stir up bad feelings. It was really more of a visceral reaction. I have nothing against people supporting the Republican party. I just don't like Glenn Beck. Lots of people don't. He was fired from his show on Fox News. Even Walmart pulled advertising in the end, along with about 50 other companies. So you don't have to be a liberal not to like the guy. The audio was posted by "Clark Pace" who I assume represents Tekton. There are 8 other Tekton videos on the same site so I have to think this is something Mr. Alexander wants us to know about. I respect him for his ability to create a great product-I only question his choice of recipients of free speakers. Jealous, too!
Actually, if he wants to use a Republican spokesman, he should send some speakers to Jon Huntsman. Huntsman is a much more appealing guy, is also from Utah and was a professional musician so might have something interesting to say about recorded music. Just a thought...
Still rockin' my stock (no upgrades) Lores in the man-cave, and M-lores in the family system. No urge to upgrade here. As I write this, I'm listening to the Classic Records mono reissue of Jackie MacLean's "Swing Swang Swingin'" on the Lores. The music is dead center between the speakers, which are about 8' apart. Sounds sublime to me.

As for the Beck affiliation, I couldn't care less. I'm a Liberal myself, but I don't see what that has to do with speakers.

I told Eric that when I find a brand I like, I'm pretty loyal. I'm sure my next pair of speakers will be Tektons.

Sure you did or you wouldn't have done it.
