Need speaker advice
Hej
I'm looking for a
new pair of speakers. The reason for this is that I find my Tannoy
Legacy Eaton a little too difficult to drive for my 2x12w Audion
Audio Sterling. I also feel that the Tannoys are a little too relaxed
and a little rolled off.
One problem with
brands like Tekton and nsmt is that I live in Sweden and I do not
have the opportunity to listen to them (which I assume is the same
problem in the US) and to send them back if I don't like them is not
financially defensible. To take a chance on one of these brands I really have to be sure that they are what I’m looking for. I don’t
think this will happend.
I heard Klipsch
Heresey III which I didn't like. To my taste, they were too much on
my face and too harsh. Could have been the room and/or the amplifier
and/or ...?
I listen to all
kinds of music, from progressive rock to classical music.
My listening
position is 6.6 feet from the speakers.
My budget is aprox $
7,200.
Any suggestions?

@simna My listening position is ~ 7 feet from my speakers. Your Audion Sterling amplifier is a good pairing for Cube Audio speakers. Cube Audio distributor in Sweden: https://perfect-sense.se/ Cube has representation in Norway, Denmark, Finland and you could also visit them in Poznań, Poland. I have the Nenuphars. Cube's Magus and Bliss fit your budget. Low volume performance is a strength. Just so you know, I came very close to moving forward with Audion's Golden Dream 300B Parallel monos and the Black Shadow 2 MkII 845 SET amp. You have a solid amp! |
Well, your neighbors in Sweden, Seas, and Denmark, Scanspeak, make great speaker components. Would you consider a kit? Here's a highly regarded Danish kit designer: http://www.troelsgravesen.dk/ |
