Need Help Choosing New Speakers

Hey Guys,
Im new at this so any honest information will help. Im looking to get a new pair of bookshelf/floor speakers for both audio and video. I would like to keep the price below 1000.00 for the pair. So far Im looking at the JL Lab Chorus 707S and the 714S along the B&W CM2 and the DM603 S3. For all-around use what do you guys think would be the best bang for the buck? With time I would like to add a matching center speaker and some kind of sub. What other brands should I look at for the price? Thank you so much for your help!

I would strong suggest you look into PSB's full line. Highly regarded and a lot of bang for your buck(s).

Paul S Barton is a great designer who produces an honest and affordable AND great sounding product, IMHO.

Good luck.

I checked out the B&W 603's against the Jm Lab 707s's and bought the Jm Labs. Excellent speakers, i just think the world of them.

Im running a pair of Velodyne subwoofers with them, set the crozzover to 60 and never looked back. excellent performance and a great match

Take a look at Klipsch RF-7's used. Great for HT and good for 2 channel with proper electronics. Regards

I just helped a friend purchase speakers and she ended up with the JM 707s. I was very impressed with them. They are easy to drive and sound great. No real faults jumped out at me. As I stated in another post, I think you could do a lot worse. The JMs are a solid buy.
