Looking for the king of mini monitors under $1500

How about the new kit from North Creek Music northcreekmusic.com the Pegasus it look's to be a killer George makes some great speakers and sure makes a great crossover . His parts are very good and speakers are well thought out. You could find a local wood worker to make the box for you . Marc

Yesterday I listened to a pair of Vienna Acoustics Grand Haydn with Musical Fidelity a3.5 integrated and cd player. The build quality and beautiful veneer finish is immediately noticeable. They use a soft dome tweeter with a new designed front port. It is my understanding they have been recently released. The sound was, as you expressed, "musically involving" to say the least. I have been looking for a pair of monitors about the physical size of the Haydn's. They are certainly on my short list. I would highly recommend you listen to them.

Harbeth HLP3-ES2.

Best under $1500 = Green Mountain Audio Europa; for $1700, you can get the Europa Max http://www.greenmountainaudio.com/

Spendor S3/5 SE. Bought them for my bedroom system when they came out and the more I live with them the more I love them. Every day I find some new positive attribute -- this morning it was admiring the bass the little suckers put out. Not the deepest, but clear and tight.
