I should have included in my initial post that only new with warranty would be considered. She lives too far away for me to be of immediate help which used might require.

If anyone is interested, she ordered the Yamaha that Martin suggested. It offers everything she needs and for a very reasonable price.

The speakers turned out to be an interesting experience. When she visited me I had two models for her to audition, both smaller stand mounted 2-ways designed by Andrew Jones. I expected she would chose the current ELAC B5 which I'd heard at the Newport Show over a year ago. Instead she preferred the older Pioneer BS22. And I agreed with her. They offered a bit more presence, dynamics, and slightly fuller bass. They were amazing for such modestly priced speakers.
