Floor standing speakers ... on a budget.

    Interested in a pair of floor standing speakers for under €300.

    So I've been thinking about the Polk T50s and the Pioneer SP-FS52 speakers, both similar dimensions, similar characteristics, technically similar, both with good reviews, and both at a similar price....

    But where can I get to do a comparison listening test and hear them side by side? Is there a HiFi shop around that would stock them both I wonder?

    I will be running them off a Pro-Ject Debut III SE turntable (Ortofon (OM20 Super cartridge)/ Marantz CD player through a 1990s NAD 3020i amplifier (or) through my Philips FA930 amp.

    Anybody?

    Even the name of a HiFi shop where ai might enquire would be a start. I did phone HiFi Hut yesterday but their floor speakers start at €799 a pair :eek:

    Upstairs in Tower Records on Dawson Street. A bit expensive but worth a try anyway.
