Audiophile Speakers for Rock, HipHop and Techno
I love many genres of music. Having a hard time finding a speaker that sounds great with hip hop, techno and rock. Suppose I should mention I've auditioned the Dynaudios Hertiage Specials and Sonus Faber Oylmpia Nova 1s. They sound fantastic with classical, acustic guitar, female voices etc... But what audiophile speaker ..especially at the 7-8k price point doesn't. Idk.. Im starting to think I need two sets of speakers. Sonus Faber Olympica Novas sound beautiful...then maybe a pair for other genres of music. Any suggestions for speakers that sound great for hip hop rock and tecno? I'm only able to do bookshelves...and I do have a pair of RELs already.
My pwr amp is a coda no.8 v2 @ 250w

@soix it makes sense why u would suggest the 19s. The two speakers I mentioned in my post are bookshelf speakers. :) listening space is the living room and the room isn't very big. Unfortunately I bought my house before I got into this hobby. :/ Space has been a killer for me. My partner at work feels my house isn't set up for high end audio. I don't think hes right... i just have to compromise more than most. Sounds like ATC are bit more forgiving with placement. As with Sonus Faber and some Focals. |
@tmac1700, to answer your question. Yes ATC perform well at low volume. The way I would describe their house sound is clean, clear and effortless. If you can swing towers the scm40 is an awesome speaker. They sound nothing like Sonus Faber by the way and closer to Focal in sonics. |
