Hi and sorry for the English.

I bought this system and need a good set of speakers for it.
I was looking for a set of Bose 301 or even the 201 but thought there might be something better for the money. I want to spend no more than 125€ so they should be used i guess if i want something better?

Thanks Brian

PS they need to be a small series. Like book shelf speakers.

there always is a better alternative than bose - it's expensive crap.

about the budget - is 125€ for each speaker or the pair?
everyone here would recommend "bigger" book shelfs, how big could these be? do you want to put them on a shelf or on stands?

where would you buy? i'd guess you're not living in germany?

Hi,

125€ is for a pair. I guess the easiest place to find
used speakers is e**y, And yes I live in Germany. Sorry
for the english I can read German fine I just dont like
to write it.

. The setup will be for my office at work
so the speakers should not be that big. The room is about
15 squar meters.

Thanks for any help

never mind!
125€ for a pair is not much, but there should be some options with used speakers.
my personal recommendation would be the (british ;)) B&W DM601 - but second hand prices are pretty high right now. i bought these used a long time ago for only 150€ but they are more expensive in current auctions. anyway - you should give it a shot!

ebay 1

ebay 2

ebay 3

ebay 4 - these could become a real steal, since the seller falsely described them as DM 301!

in my opinion these are the best second hand speakers for a low budget there are.

of course there are many other options - for instance

these (

another auction,

another one).

maybe someone else has another good hint.

but both the b&w and nubert are pretty good book shelfs.

i guess not. if you're talking about

this tmr - there are no book shelfs.

good luck with the auctions!

let me know if you're succesful.

perhaps you'll get another hint from someone else here.
tastes in speakers do differ.
