Am I crazy? Definitely!


Hi All, my system is Rega RP6 with Exact cart> McIntosh MA5200> Sonus Faber Auditor M / Tannoy Precision 6.2LE / B&W Cdm7Se and REL Strata III. I have a Denon 3910 mainly for listening to SACDs from time to time. Have upgraded power cables and XLO and Van Den Hull ICs. 
2 questions. Firstly, I am thinking of buying some Klipsch Heresy gen 1. All original. This would be for cranking all my Rock vinyl as none of the other speakers are really great at rock.  
Secondly, I am thinking why don’t I just sell my speakers and get something that can do everything ( mainly listen to jazz, blues, prog, rock) and instead of rotating speakers in and out ( which I really enjoy) I can just be lazy and go with one set.  Maybe Focal Kanta? Or something like that. About 10k hopefully used. 
I’m quite attached to the RP6 and the Mc ( for now) so not interested in applying my upgraditis in this area. 
Would appreciate your thoughts and ideas on both of these points. 
Thanks.

How any speaker works in your room with your gear is the journey.

Picking stuff out of the blue is like walking into a pitch black room with three women in it and choosing a wife. You may get lucky and then 
you may get a divorce.

The Heresy functions well for what it was designed as- a center channel
speaker for corner horns. I love horns but that one is too small. Look at some older Altecs-the M500 if you can find them. 

I heard the Tekton Impact Monitors this past weekend at a local retailer.
They are a standmount size and in the gray color the black circles did not bother me. They surprised me as being very enjoyable to listen to.
Other models I had heard were the Double Impacts and the Lores. Both did nothing for me. 

Please keep us posted!!
