Efficient Floorstander


Hello,

I'm looking for an efficient floorstanding speaker. I currently have JM Reynaud Twin monitors. My present room is 13x24 with a cathedral ceiling. One side is open to another room. The concern I have, is that I may have to move to a smaller place in the future. So I'm looking for a speaker that can be used in a smaller room if that happens. I listen to Jazz, blues, rock. My amp is an Audiomat Arpege, 30 watts a channel. I'm pretty much homebound, so I really can't get out to listen.(elder care) Any suggestions, would really help to pointing me in the right direction. Thanks in advance.

Duke's speakers would work nicely in your room, I would recommend you consider the Rhythm Prisms as they are the smallest floor stander he offers. I have been using his Jazz Modules for several years now in a variety of rooms, one of which was much smaller than yours. Their flexibility with placement is a bonus. Duke himself was pretty surprised at how I had mine set up in a very small room and how good they sounded.

That being said I do not know what your budget is, but Duke has a introduced newer version of the Jazz Modules. They are larger and About twice the price of the Rhythm Prisms but IMO these speakers have proven to me to be far and away better than anything else I have heard in my system, including the Audio Note ANe's which are substantially more in cost.
