Help me in the right direction, new speakers


Greetings

I am a Swedish musiclover and love to read up on this forum. Please excuse my english.

I have just placed an order for Modwright Transporter and will use it as a source of music (FLAC).

What I am looking for in a pair of speakers is:

* It must be able to play _all_ type of music. Some
speakers sounds excellent with classical, but are
horriable with "The Prodigy" for example.

* I want to _feel_ the music: the speakers should deliever
emotions (SF Cremona was excellent at this). I
cherish "musicallity" more than razorsharp details. I
never heard a speaker with both skills, so...

* Dynamics!!

I donĀ“t like cold and analytical sound :)

My limit is around $8000

My room is 215ft2 (20m2)

Thanks!

If you have a chance to audition a pair of Emerald Physics CS-2's, take the opportunity.

They are an open baffle design and have truly excellent bass.

I feel they split the difference between "emotional" and "analytical." I refer to their sound as clean. If the recording is emotional, the music will be. If, on the other hand, the recording is dry or etched, so also will be the music. In a word, they are transparent.

Right now they are less than $7,000 for the speakers, the active external crossover, and amplification, as a package.

Disclaimer: I have no financial interest in the speakers, crossover, or amplification. I am merely a very, very happy consumer.
