Your speakers are obviously horn speakers. It’s a “type” of sound some people think is the end all and others, well, not so much. Given what you’ve said you may have identified yourself as the latter. If Vandy sounds good to you I’d recommend auditioning others like ProAc, Joseph Audio, Usher, whatever’s closest to you as these all exhibit similar imaging and soundstage strengths that I think might be attracting you. As audiophiles, we’re all wired and hear differently. I’m not a horn/Klipsch guy, just not in my DNA, but very much a Vandy fan and one of my faves. Definitely worth exploring further, and you’ll likely be much happier in the end if you just continue to follow YOUR ears. Best of luck.
Feel free to talk me off the ledge
Just picked up my new Rogue RP-1 from a dealer. That coupled with my Rogue Atlas, then to my Klipsch Heresy IV's with an SVS PB2000 pro has me over the moon right now. But funny thing happened at the dealer.. I couldn't help myself, I listened to some other speakers. I'm an idiot, a glutton, a fool. As you can imagine I'm now about a third the way down the rabbit hole.
At the dealer I was enchanted by a pair of Golden ear BRX monitors, they were so sweet, airy and open. Can't stop thinking about them.
Now I'm looking at:
Paradigm founder 80F
Tyler Time Keepers
The Golden Ear BRX
Vandersteen's among others..
Am I nuts? should I join a support group (other than the other one I'm already in) ?
Feedback always appreciated
