Thanks for the suggestions friends. I ended up getting DeVore Gibbon 3XLs with Naim Nait 5i. I am in heaven. The sound is incredibly dynamic, exceptionally musical with great resolution and tonality. Whether you throw Alice in Chains on that system or Patricia Barber, it sings with authority and delicacy at the same time. I am also very pleased with the resolution and detail without sounding clinical, lean or bright. It rocks!
Best combination of sweetness and dynamics?
Gents,
What would you recommend for a pair of speakers that are really sweet on the top end (Dynaudio-like) but easy-to-drive for excellent dynamics, weight and slam ? I listen to a lot of rock and a sucker for efficiency and a full sound at low listening levels (deepest bass not necessary). I want to able to get the full scale guitar distortion and full mid-base without sacrificing too much on the resolution and transparency. Feel free to recommend a combination of speakers and amps. Thanks in advance and happy listening.
Cheers
