BEST SPEAKER TO MATCH..


This is probably the first time that a female trying hard to be in audio circa, is asking desperately of what speaker I can match with my Sunfire AMP (300 watts per channel and Sunfire tube pre-amp with kimber hero IC and kimber 8tc speaker cable.

Right now I am using NHT 2.5i and my boyfriend (who introduce me to this craze)is telling me all the time that my set up did not match the performance of my amp and pre-amp....pleeease help...

Thanks for all your advise...my system is a stereo set up and my boyfriend system is a combination of KRELL MONO AND PRE-AMP with a matching PROAC speaker..now on my budget is around $1500 for the speaker and I will pay for it not my boyfriend and my sound preference is jazz, blues and soft rock .
you guys are very helpful, I wish I could invite all of you to my little shack so that you can personally give your honest opinion of which speaker brand I need to go.
I do like the proac but the price is kinda a little bit out of my budget, and I dont want to ask help from my boyfriend..you know what I mean a "a girl thing"//huh!.

Again..to you good looking helpful guys..thanks from the innermost chamber of my heart..
My room is about 15 ft by 25 ft and about 10ft high and I have a sofa and love seat in which it accomodate almost third of my listening area and my floor is carpeted, I have my speaker placed about a foot away from the wall and I have it toe out about 8 inches on the side.
Your advise will be rewarded by good smile and a wink of my hazel eyes...how about that!!!!!!(my boyfriend is right here beside me breathing like a dragon..he..he..he...he)
Hello Jeffloistarca and all you audiogon member,

I did go to the website(www.cardas.com) and try those speaker placement ,distance of calculation and measurement that the site recommend, and it does work so good and it seems like it is new a system,but the biggest problem is I have to re-arranged my listening room due to the movement of the furniture and so far I am happy and my boyfriend is also happy,

Thanks

I owe you one.......
Hey Sedond thank you for the response but your comment is still welcome, I am still not fully satisfied ("a woman attitude to always change their mind every second, that drive my boyfriend crazy) but it is more better than the previous setup.

Again to you gorgeous looking and smart guys of AUDIOGON a warm kiss of gratitude...bye bye..bye
