Bookshelf sized-cost no object

In addition to the choices above (of which I have only heard the Red Rose #3...WOW!), listen to ProAc Response 1sc ($2000), Joseph rm7si ($1800), and the MBL 311D ($4000).

Before you make any decision, listen to the Dynaudio 1.3 SE Mk.II ($3,500 new). I haven't heard the Red Rose #3, but the Dynaudio beats most of the larger size speakers I've heard that cost almost twice as much..

I believe one of the B&W Signature Series is that size.

Which amp are you using, and which type if music do you listen to mostly?

If you can find it try and audition the Piega P2ltd. Very refined.
