Which of these speakers are the best? What are the differences between them?
Polk FXi30
Polk RTi4
Infinity Primus 250
Infinity Primus 160
Bose 201 Series V
I will be using them for classical music, mostly.
Best regards,
Richard

What is your budget?
What is your amplifier?
Do you plan on using these on stands or in a bookshelf or are
small towers also an option?
IMO, these are all basically like comparing which brand of
econobox is best - A Hyundai or Kia or a Daewoo. You can
do much better if we know these three basic criteria.

My budget is $400.00.
My receiver is Yamaha HTR-5230 (60 w/ch).
Stands, bookshelf and towers are possiable.

Good. Your receiver is decent enough and with $400, you could
get a decent pair of speakers. www.audiogon.com routinely
lists Tannoy MX4 towers new for about $400-$450. Used, you
can get something much better for $400. I'd stay away from
EBay and search Audiogon for a few weeks. Used also allows
you to haggle some and saves you tax.
