@moonwatcher ooh interesting. So these speakers are really meant for smaller rooms. I can try them in my bigger living room but if theres something wrong with the sound, I’ll just suck it up and make a dedicated spot for them in our room when I eventually rearrange everything. Thank you for sharing that!
Need help finalizing what speaker to get
Hi. I just got an RT85 turntable with a Schiit Mani 2 preamp, and now I'm looking to get some decent speakers to go with them. My original budget was around $250 but someone told me to hold out more for something better. I've got my eyes on some Wharfedales but still cant decide because I'm seeing mixed reviews talk about it being well detailed but at the same time too bright. My main goal is to get a grand loud sound because I want to mainly play it in a large open room. I'd like all my equipment to compliment each other so I have the rt85 with the M2 Blue, the Mani 2, and now I want some good speakers so that they all work well together but just need some help from real people to finally decide on a speaker. Thank you!

t-boba The only good speakers I've heard around $500 give or take are: Vanguard Scouts at Vera-fi Audio for $299. Slightly more for the Elac Debut 2.0 6.2 at $330, or the new Debut 3.0 6.3 for $500 new. For a few shekels more, look at the Polk Audio Reserve R200s for about $600 new, or $400 used in great condition.
Best of luck to you |
by far the best deal at your budget are these Wharfdale's- complete with 6-1/2" woofer - don't settle for a smaller woofer. https://www.theabsolutesound.com/articles/wharfedale-diamond-225/ |
