Both are quite good and I don't necessarily think one outshines the other. I do prefer a fuller sound, so I would lean towards the 7B given what I know about your room. Any plans to run a sub? If not, then I would definitely go the 7B route.
Aerial 6 or 7B ? Nearfield listening. Thanks.
I am curious about these for nearfield listening
(about 7-8 feet from front of speaker to my nose).
I like the smooth, grit-free Aerial sound, but feel
I don't have the space for 20Ts or 9s (correct me if I'm wrong). I also like the way Aerials seem to be forgiving of lesser quality recordings and are not ruthlessly revealing.
Any comments about their sound (especially in terms of
the old 10Ts, which I owned for a few months years ago)
would be welcome.
I have an Edge NL12.1 amp and EMM SE CD separates.
I don't like boomy bass, pushy midrange, or searing highs.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
