Hi guys,

My dad has asked for a new set of speakers for xmas to replace his ancient floor standing ones. My budget LIMIT is $400, preferably a bit under but we'll see.

He wants the nicest pair of floor standing speakers that fall within budget. No real other criteria except Im looking for a pair, not a 5.1 set or anything. He's fine with 2nd hand.

I've had a quick look on trademe but not in detail yet. What would you guys suggest? Are there any good stores to go to for speakers around that price (new or used) or should I stick with trademe, etc?

What would you guys do?

Cheers in advance!
