Those are killer speakers, but I didn't see them anywhere in the states. The only prices I found were in English pounds and they are ~1500!! Probably out of the budget....

Whatever you do, don't get Bose. They are mediocre at best and the bass extention is TERRIBLE!! Plus they are very independent, you will have very little flexibility with upgrades or other components if you wish to upgrade in the future.
