Floor standing speaker recommendations new or used, $10,000 and under
Hello I'm looking to some new speakers and I need some recommendations to audition. I currently have the Nola Viper IIa, but I'm looking for improved bass and just an improvement in sound overall.
I have a Mcintosh mc7150 power amp and a De havilland Ultra verve 3 preamp. My source is a musical fidelity cd player.
I have a medium sized room, approximately 20' by 16'. Ceiling is about 9ft high.
I've listened to the Focal Sopra 2. and the Totem Acoustic Hawk, but I'd like to expand my options.

Here’s a link to get you started and you can hear many of them with all types of equipment but the finish of these are beautiful...: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mKvAjDnONC4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SuEpcFYcPKo Wig |
You can follow the progression as they break-in, it took mines almost 300 hours before they hit their sweet-spot but the speaker is seamless top to bottom and the bass is amazing... The sound is rich, resolving, 3D, wide and deep sound stage with unbelievable pin-point imaging; they really disappear! Wig |
@ hawk28 I have sleeper speaker that's under the radar and very few are in the know but coming from Thiel, Vandersteen, Avalon and AZ Crescendos' just to name a few and these Liberty's XVOX is in a class of their own and at 1/4 of the price of those mentioned. These are an entry level if you want to call them that but are made by PBN Audio which says a lot... Reach out to the distributor, Mike at 11steroe.com and see the many videos on youtube under ocd hi-fi guy. These Liberty speakers are superb! Wig |
Yep, Mike used a variety of amps and a sampling of all types of music to demonstrate that they can handle almost anything and not a speaker for certain types of music. He also showed how loud and clean they can play without distorting. These speakers are the best I have heard and I have had a lot of them; they sound better than the $16K speakers I had. Wig |
