Hello,
I wanted to bring a few things to your attention:
If using close to the wall do sealed or front ported. Add a sub to get the rest of the bass and bloom you want. Also, you can listen at really low volumes because the sub has its own amp which means you can keep the volume low 55db or less and still get the full range of sound. Are you pulling them out into the room. If so then you can go with a rear ported speaker. You should still get the sub for low level listening. You have to match your speaker to the amp. A lot of good bookshelve speakers are 4 ohm. You need an amp that can drive it properly on my second system I have a really nice 100w amp pushing an insignia bookshelf speaker. It sounds amazing. With a 200w it sounds even better at low volume. Be careful, some of these 200w integrated amps don’t really get out a full sound till they get too loud. ML Is one. Ayre is awesome at all volume levels. Don’t be fooled by a 70wpc Ayre int. Amp. It’s like having 150w of power.
