Reference Monitor Recommendations Help-Please

Green Mountain Audio,SPendors, or Sonus Faber...all make excellent, musical, non-fatiguing monitors...with unreal transparency...and 3-d imaging to die for...good luck...

Rgd is right on with the stands. Get the best you can afford. Stands are a major (fundemental) extension of your speaker and will have a significant effect on the sound of your monitors. I use the Sistrum Mini Monitor Platforms. Yeah, they are pricey, but they are the most unbelievable stands: visually and, of course, sonically. Most audiophools do not take into consideration the stands when dropping the big $$ on killer monitors. My particular stands have a baby brother; while not better, are also unbelievable. Cool to look at (like no other stand you've ever seen) and wait 'til you hear what they'll do for your speakers. check 'em out. peace, warren

Silverline's SR17's are outstanding monitors. They have no right to sound the way they do being so small. You will not believe the sound coming out of them, and set up properly they are as invisible as the holy spirit!

For a room like you have you might want to audition some of the excellent lower powered tube products on the market. I personally have found I am happiest with tube equipment in smaller rooms. Check out the Cary 300 SEI or other mid to low powered tube equipment. The Madisound 220 SE is another gem. Just a thought.

And yes, I too agree that the Shamrock's are a wonderful monitor speaker. Mike McCall is also a class act straight shooter to deal with. "I build the best speaker I know how". He's telling it straight.
