Thanks for response, here are a few details:

- Will not be used as part of surround system. Full-range bookshelf speaker would be best (as full-range as possible at least).

- Floor speakers are out, as is sub/sat because of space and transportation considerations. They will have to be carried (possibly as excess baggage) on plane to India. Also will be used in a fairly small place there.

- Trying to find something for $500/pr or less if possible, though this may be somewhat flexible.

Thanks!
