Demo some ProAc studio 148s if you can. Deepest bass I’ve heard in a 2.5 way smaller tower with downwards firing port to help with placement. Great mids and same tweeter as their Response line. I got mine new for less than $3500. I’m using some Soundocity SEV9 outriggers with them. With my YBA gear I’ve never had a more realistic and musical sound.
Concert Experience for $5k?
I have a budget of $5k for new/used stereo speakers.
I have a VPI turntable, PrimaLuna Dialogue preamp and a Cary Audio V12 tube amp. (yeah, the one with 12 EL34’s sticking out of it) I’ve got quality gear and plenty of horsepower.
I am chasing the rock concert experience. When you’re at a live show drums have a sharp attack and crack. Bass/kick drums have a punch you can feel. ....that’s what I want to feel when I play a live album.
Which speakers - new or used - would you recommend to recreate that rock concert feeling?
