You didn't mention if size was important. I just finished a nice small set of speakers for my office. They are Fostex FE107E speakers in a ported 6-liter cabinet (12.5"H x 6"W x 10.75"D). They won't do deep bass but do sound very nice.http://www.geocities.com/remlapretep/104_0452.JPG
Right now I'm using them as my home office system without a sub and they are fine for jazz/classical/etc. If you are looking for party level volume or big bass, then you need to look elsewhere.

That is actually really pretty. I can't get the jpeg link to work though.
That's not a link. I just included the address because I wanted to make sure that there was a way to get to the picture if it didn't show up in the post. To use it you'll need to copy and paste it into your browser.

That wooden grill looks familiar - I picked up a pair of Sonics AS-304A's at Goodwill ($20?) that I enjoyed for a while with my Paramours - very nice midrange, ran them with the backs removed, faux open baffle style. Our four year old kicked off a rain boot and put a 3 inch tear in one of the woofers - glued it up with diluted white glue, but I keep the wooden grills on now when the kids are home.
That's my Sansui SP-3500. Got them in Okinawa '74 and haven't been able to part with them since. Not the last word in detail or imaging, but one hell of a party speaker. 100dB/W/m makes them fairly tube friendly. They've survived the 70's, two boys, served as living room end tables when we first got married, and still keep on truckin'. I just can't let them go.
