Hi Brad, do you have any priority? speech, music, audibility in the evening at low level etc? Your room size, happy to consider speakers other than the lamininated usual types or open to something different?
I’ve been wondering about a speaker system recently albeit for the front room and to get relevant Advice I suggest you may need to be more specific in your preferences otherwise you’ll end up with lots of well intentioned suggestions which are based on what other fishies have, not what’s best for your situation.
We all try to help but you perhaps could be more transparent about your preferences which could cover a lot of speakers at £1500 which is down to you to supply.
best of luck , John
