New/ Used speakers, 500-800 bucks CAD


Hello all,

Just got my sugden A48b back from repair. Still running the same old rotel rcd971 cd player with rega ara speakers.

I have a sony ps1 coming soon, which i may end up using as a source... (i want to see what all the talk's about...)

Although I like the Aras for what they are (punchy, tuneful), I want a more open sounding speaker which would mate well w/ my somewhat warm sugden.

My room is about 9 x 15 with the speakers on the long wall (although the room is mostly open to the kitchen, extending the width further). The room is a bit dead sounding, as well, just fyi.

I'm open to any suggestions for used speakers in the 500-800 dollar range which might fit the bill.

thanks !

I recently came across Boston Acoustic A26 on a tube set up and was intoxicated by the smooth but very spacious sound....with nimble, fluid bass and open midrange...for the record...have owned Quad 12s and MA silver 4s...the A26 are a steal at 400 with grest build
