So I just bought a Hegel H390 and

Harbeth Speaker

Superb amp. I'm running an h95 in my bedroom system and it is outstanding. So the 390 is going to be a beast. I agree with the group, speakers are a matter of taste. However that amp will drive just about anything. 

Hey jjss49,

I want the sound of the speakers to be the same as the amp so the sound would be as close to neutral.  I don’t  want a speaker that will color the sound one way or the other, but if they do, I’d want the speakers to be a taste on the warm side and not the cold side.

Does that make sense?  Hope so.

electrokardiogram,

 I do have a store in my area that sells KEF and I’ve been trying to get an appointment with them for a couple of months now!  
I’ll give them a call again tomorrow.  Maybe they’ve had a cancellation.

Thanks 

JD

My pride was abruptly challenged when I put these Italian stand mount speakers up against my Lenehan Audio ML2 stand mounts that I built.

These speakers are seriously highly resolving.

**Skip set me straight, it was the Fiesole not the Sienna I heard at his place**

They are $9k with stands, I called Skip to ask him, and he said the Hegel is a good pairing.

Whatever you purchase, the Hegel is a great amplifier. I heard it in El Paso TX a few years ago, and I want to hear the H590 because of that amp.
One thing in particular I like, is that, though it has a built in DAC, it's ability to accept an external DAC makes it even more versatile and future proof.
Great purchase mate!
