Need more heft
In the market for floor standing full range speakers. Would appreciate recommendations up to $4K.
Current rig:
VPI Scout TT
Lyra Delos MCPass Labs XP12 pre
Pass Labs XP17 phono pre
Pass Labs XA25 ampZU Audio Soul MK 2 Speakers
ZU cable
Love the mid range and immediacy of the speakers but they have no heft or bottom end/bass extension which is what I am seeking. Not interested in adding a sub.
For reference, I’ve researched ZU Omen Def MK2, Kef, Focal, Klipsch Forte 3 and Heresy 4, JBL L100 and Golden Ear.
Appreciate your feedback in advance.

The new LSA-20 Statements are on sale here now for $4500/pr and includes some nice speaker cables in the deal. They go down to 25Hz and will likely better your Souls in virtually every parameter. There’s a review on Part Time Audiophile that uses a Pass amp and a 20W tube amp and found the LSAs to be largely on par with his $25k reference speakers. Plus the seller/manufacturer offers a 30-day trial and free shipping, which is really nice. Best of luck in your search. |
My weakest link, due to large room is my Emerald Physics KCIIs But last night I decided to replace an $800 boutique power cord with a WireWorld Electra 7 MSRP $240 to my Core Power 1800 which plugs into a 20 amp dedicated line. This completes my Electra 7 cords powering my system I am shocked what this one inexpensive change made across the board, especially noticed in the bass, which came alive hth |
Check out the Golden Ear speaker line. They offer great performance at an affordable price range, including powered bass. https://www.goldenear.com/products/triton-series |
