So what's the overall dimensions of the room? I note the high ceilings, but what are the other dimensions?
Another Speaker Selection Thread...
I have been reading the various threads on what speakers to choose, and why. While helpful, I have realized that the reason there are so many similar threads is due to the numerous variables each has in room, wall, system, etc limitations. So here is mine.
First off, I am relatively new into high end audio - only jumping in mid last year. My first system consisted of a Jolida JD100a CDP, Quicksilver V4 monos, Modwright 9.0 preamp and AAD 2001 monitors. I then added a pair of JM Reynaud Trente's and compared them with the AAD's. I then recently purchased a new Juicy Music Peach II pre-amp and traded the Jolida for a Raysonic 128 CDP. Since doing so, I have a much "darker" sound - too dark for my liking. So, I compared the pre-amps and I believe the Modwright is a tad brighter, but not ready to give up on the JM as I am not sure if I am actually focused on the right things. I live in a converted warehouse, so brick on back and side wall, 20' ceilings with windows on one side and the other side open to the rest of first floor. I also have a neighbor downstairs, so I am trying to be conscientious of them as well.
So - with that introduction...I am seeking your input on a speaker that can be placed close (>2-3') from the wall, yet fill the room. I listen to all music, but primarily Zeppelin, Waterboys, Pink Floyd and acoustic.
I'd prefer to stay below $3k on the used market
Thanks in advance, Brian
