Re: I need a floorstanding speaker at least 250W RMS

24 nights, awesome album!
There are a lot of options, but I can't help but wonder if maybe you've got a defective driver? 10 o'clock doesn't seem to be that much..... was the power clean or distorting? Even a low amount of distorted power will blow a speaker. How old were the speakers, still under warranty, or about to bite the bullet anyway?
If you're looking for new speakers, there are litterally hundreds of options, the best bet is to listen at local dealers for something you like in your price range. You might also want to take your amp/pre down to the shop to do the demo with. Don't pay too much attention to the numbers, as even a 10 watt per channel amp will blow a 200 watt speaker, if those 10 watts are distorted and clipped.
Good luck!
