This is why I have started to develop a fascination with vintage sound gear: no gimmicks, just sound from speakers.

  To add to that, old speakers have very good dynamic range. New ones have crappy mids and strong bass so you get loudness but overall sound is skinny

    New studio monitors are usually pretty neutral.

      Studio monitors are a different game (and are pricier for a reason). I was talking about consumer speakers.

        Places like Monoprice have some good choices for under $200 / pair. Maybe they are more expensive, but I think they aren't unreasonable.
