I think your weakest link is the Rotel amp. For $5K you can get some much better, including Hegel, Moon by Simaudio and Anthem. Also, that room is large; do you have acoustic treatments? With two subs, you might be muddying the sound without bass traps. Also, you state that you are 15' from the speakers; that seems possibly too far away for standmounts, but you don't say how far away from the backwall they are. The triangle rule is that the speakers should be the same distance apart from each other as you are from them. A 15 foot spread between mintors seems too large, so it might just be your current setup, which won't cost you anything to adjust. Good luck
Speakers for room size that provide greater detail.
I’m looking at replacing my Wharfedale Super Lintons. The room size is 24’ length, and 14’ wide. Ceilings are 12’. My current listening distance is 15’ from my speakers. I have 2 Rel Classic 99 subs, running through a Rotel RA1592. Used for only playing music.
Want a speaker that is resolving at lower and loud volumes. Speakers that are more resolving than the Super Lintons at louder the volumes specifically. I am currently looking at the Kef R11 Meta, Kef Reference 1 Meta and Wharfedale Elysian 2. I would prefer a stand mount speaker. But open to a floor standing. Besides the speakers I’ve mentioned looking for other recommendations that I can read up on and demo in person. Thanks in advance.
