I was having dinner with a friend last night, and he told me he was going out today to pick up a pair of Bose 701 speakers. He recently bought my Sony STR-DE915 DD receiver after I upgraded to a Denon 2802. He wants to pick a nice pair of mains, mostly for use with movies.
I successfully convinced him his money would be better spent on another brand. The problem is I've now drowned him with possibilities: Paradigm, Definitive, Boston, Polk, Mirage, Klipsch, etc. He wants me to go out with him to help him pick a pair, and I'd like to have a crib sheet of possible models for us to comparison test. I know the brand names, but I'm not familiar with the various models, and I'd certainly like to know what NOT to steer him towards. He wants to spend no more than $800 for the pair.
Can everyone give me their picks?
