I have owned many speakers over the years, M&K, Linn (Aktiv), Magnepan, Castle, are a few, but the Palladium P17Bs are by far the most live sounding, accurate, lowest distortion, speakers that I have heard.
I could not be happier and I highly recommend them.
I don't have the room for Klipsch's larger speakers so not trying to start that debate. I am sure they are fantastic.
