The Acoustic Energy Neo 3's which were recommended to me by Dan and others, really are terrific, it says something about a burn in of 100 hours but they sound fantastic right now and that's without filling them. I actually bought them from elsewhere in the end because it only cost an extra 20.00 to get them in walnut. However that offer on ebay for them is a bargain and hopefully anyone currently looking for cheap, but quality floorstanders will discover them also.
