Looking for a romantic sounding monitor


I currently own a pair of Triangle Zerius I want to keep and put into a second system. I am looking for a romantic pair of bookshelves to use with my Roksan Caspian MKII Int with a YBA CD Special. I dont know if Quad L series or B&W will give me the romantic sound im looking for. Any suggestions under $1000 new or used?

Triangle - Though I'm personally not a huge fan of SF (I prefer a more neutral presentation) - I think they may be exactly what you are looking for. 'Romantic' is about the most descriptive word for them. look for a used (or new) pair of concertinos or concertos. They will work fine with your amp.

I would also recommend the Von Schweikert VR1 - Available at $1000 new or around $600 used. It is not as "romantic" as the SF, but IMHO is a better, more well-rounded speaker overall. It is still on the warm side, but more accurate and dynamic than the small SF speakers.

The Quad L series is a nice, transparent little speaker - but it is NOT overly warm and romantic by any means. B&W certainly is not what you're looking for either.
