Help with Speaker Selection


My room is 20x20 with a ceiling that slopes from 8 feet on the sides to 16 feet in the center. The system is ARC 150.2, Naim CD 3.5, Sugden pre-amp and speakers Linn Keilidh.

One side of the room has 8 foot high shelving upon which the speakers sit. So speaker placement remains less than ideal.

I play rock and roll mostly. Any part of the system can be replaced but I have always enjoyed the ARC sound.

Will entertain any suggestion.

Thanks to all for their comments.

The older Linn's can sound pretty flat in the wrong set up and definitely is not a rock and roll speaker.

The placement is not clear to me, but assuming it's not behind the sofa or something, you might look at Spendor, Pro-ac or Harbeth. All have that great mid-range and top end, with manageable bass and will definitely liven things up.
