Speakers for Classical and Rock in large space.


I am new to the audiophile world, and I am looking to purchase speakers, amplification.

I have decided to hunt down the speakers first, and then match the other components to them.

I listen to a wide range of music,from jazz to electronic, but a large part of my collection is classical, with an emphasis on big dynamic symphonic stuff.

I would like to find speakers that can handle complex high calorie crescendos with meaty,fast,controlled bass, without blending individual instruments into mush, yet that also sound sweet with small scale solo work, mainting the musical in the music.

On the otherhand, they also need to make me move when I
play rock.

My listening space is unusal- an open, roughly square area about 1400 square feet with twenty foot high ceilings.

Finally, I would prefer to buy them new, and not spend more than 3500.00 dollars.

So far I have auditioned Vandersteen, Dynaudio Audience, Snell XA, Soliloquy, BW nt, and Thiel.

Any thoughts, suggestions and advice would be much appreciated.
