Question Cerwin-Vega's?

I'm looking for a floor speaker "like" a Cerwin-Vega, but without paying Cerwin-Vega prices. Any suggestions?

I used to have a pair of Cerwin-Vega 3-way stereo speakers. I can't remember the model, but they had a 12" woofer with the red rubber surrounds. They were very efficient and powerful, but they weren't very accurate.

Yes they are powerfull and very bassy if this the ticket to the OP's happyness in terms of speakers, I'll try work something out to find a speaker to his likings.

What Vegas did you have in mind cause you can find some for 650$ quite easily I think.
Here the VE 12F for $279 each

From my understanding the VE series aren't very good. I use to have the 8 inch and 15 inch VS series and those were quite good, but i've had no luck finding any VS series...

It's like eBay, only the items are all audio related.
http://www.audiogon.com
Just checked the link and it's currently offline for maintenance.
