Help chossing a good speaker. $ 3-5 K


Hi guys: Need some help. Trying to buy a good pair of speakers. I listen mostly to Classic, Jazz and some Rock from the 60-70's. The room is small (13 * 10 * 9). I have a Mc MC 352. I have looked at Harbeth (M30, SHL-5), ATC (SCM 19, 35 and 40) and Dynaudio Confidence C1. I'm looking for clear, non congested sound. I do have a REL strata III on hand that I could use to extend the lower frequency if a feel I need it. I usually listen at no more than 75-80 dB. Thanks in advance.

PS: this is a review/opinion based blind purchase. Dallas is an underserved City and the ones I have auditioned are too expensive or I did not like.

small room! Well, it looks as if you have narrowed it down, but if you are still open to suggestions,I would probably look at Tyler Acoustics new offerings. I have been extremely pleased with his Linbrook Sig System, and he has smaller floorstanding monitors that would be a good match. He told me that his newest offerings (Decade line) are a better match with tubes. I may try a Mac MA2275 with my new D2's. I demoed a bunch of items before purchasing my Linbrooks, and for the money, nothing I demoed at retail was close.
