If you go for the 300, note that the difference between MK1 and MK2 is a tighter bass response on the mk2 while the MK1 has more bloom and less definition in that region. Oh and speaking of stand mounted the old Grand Coupe is a bargain if you want to cut costs. I have not heard the Ikon 6 in any controlled environment, so you are on your own there

I've heard lots of Dali speakers, anything specific you want to know? A few notes: The Helicon line is the sweet spot price/performance wise, especially the 300 stand mounted. A lot of their speaksers have a sort of mid bass hump. Old gems include the Dali Grand Diva and of cause the Megaline
