Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
If you have space a pair of budget speaker stands will get the best out of your new speakers.
The Monitor Audio Bronze 2 is 35cm tall and is getting great reviews. They are £280. I have heard them in a £3k system - they should have been outclassed but I would say they were not.
I'be got some plus a set of Mk2''s, which are even tighter,but not so full sounding.
I also have some active Meridian M20's.
People think it's them playing because the Mk1 Kan's have a lot of bass when positioned right.
I use are Musical Fidelity 3B pretty and P270 power amps.
I used to work in a Richer Sounds and got to hear loads on a daily basis, I would always come back to the zensors.
I would strongly recommend fining your local hifi shop (that has a demo room!) and listening to as many as possible within your budget as a lot of it down to what you want out of the speaker.
But you wont be disappointed with the Dali's!
Any suggestions for more budget speakers?
KEF coda and cresta range are also one's to look for if looking budget 2nd hand.

In other words, the speaker is designed to work very close to the back wall, and that is good news if you have to put them on a bookshelf.
On cables....If you are going to Richer Sounds you want the cheapest decent cable they suggest. One step up from bell wire. That is the best bet for your system.

I agree that the Monitor Audio Bronze 2 do sound great. They are front ported and can be placed pretty close to the back wall without getting boomy if you block the ports with the handily supplied bungs.
