Floor Standing "Warm" Speaker


I'm looking for suggestions on which manufacture I should consider when looking for a Floor standing full range speaker. Want a speaker that has a FULL RICH bottom and sweet highs and great imaging. Have large room and would like 90DB sens. currently Have Theta Casablanca, Theta Transport, Aragon 8008BB amp and velo sub (for HT only).

If you can, try and audition Reynaud speakers. I have not listened to their larger floor standers, but the Twin and Trente models are what I would consider to be on the warm side of neutral and they are extremely musical (like Vandersteens) and do not lack detail in the HF's. I am currently using a pair of Twins with a 7 watt/channell 300b amp and though the Twin's are rated @ 4 ohms, I am not experiencing any difficulty driving them. I would also suggest that you audition both Spendor and Harbeth speakers as well before laying your money down. The last two speakers mentioned do not champ in the imaging department, IMO, but they are exceedingly musical and worth a listen. If you want it all then you may want to check out Silverline speakers, the best that I have heard being the Sonata's. The other suggestions are great as well, these are just a few more to add to yor list.
