Thanks to all for the ideas, education and assistance.
In hindsight it is apparent I have been looking for too much out of one set of speakers, at least in my price range. I also don't have the depth of experience with equipment that most of you folks have and it makes it much more difficult to describe what I am looking for. I know it when I hear it but I have no clue how to describe it. It was a surprise for me to learn I can be in musical nirvana with great speakers with certain music and have good (not phenomenal) sound with other types of music. I have been continuing to educate myself by reading and visiting a few forums and it all has helped. I finally understand why I see photos of folks music rooms and see two or three sets of speakers and a variety of amps/pre-amps and sources.
I never got the PMC's to my house for an audition. At the store I eliminated them from consideration and after a few days with the 803s I wanted to try the OB1i's and they had sold. From the research I have done on line it looks like I have to make a 10 hour drive to Toronto to hear them again and listen to the PB1i's. Apparently there are two dealers in the U.S. that carry them in their showrooms, one in CA and one in N.Y city. Seems strange for such a highly thought of speaker but I see other expensive speakers that are just sold direct. Do you folks attend shows to hear this gear?
Thanks Again, Mike
