Thanks. I do think that I will need to upgrade my amplifier. The NAD is a good suggestion Also toying with the idea of a vintage Sansui perhaps though I will need to research how well they do with lower impedance.
Speakers for a large room
I have a large space that's L shaped. About 20 feet from where the speakers are to the couch. The family room opens up into a kitchen so the front wall is also close to 20ft. The ceiling is cathedral.
I have an NAD326bee but might be willing to upgrade.
We listen to music while walking about, while off axis in the kitchen and while on the far away couch.
My wife would prefer bookshelf speakers but that's not firm. What speakers at around $1500 would be appropriate for this space and how we listen (never in the sweet spot). We listen to a lot of 70s stuff rock, vocals basically no jazz or classical.
I have Always lusted after vandersteen 2 speakers but are they a poor choice given our listening positions? Would a smaller speaker like totem rainmaker or KEF r300 work?
