Downsizing Setup Looking for Small 2 Way speakers. Selling my Perfect Storm Vapor Audio.


Hi All,

Im on the verge now to downsizing my system for various reasons, I have a baby on the way and we are planning to move out of our home into something more smaller but easier to maintain. My wife is finding the current home too expensive and interior design for our current house on quote is scary.


I placed an order with Vapor Audio The Perfect Storm White Speakers. It was supposed to be installed into a 8 meter long room now we are planning to move out and I never took delivery for the speakers. They are up for sale on Audiogon and so are brand new Atma-Sphere MA2 Amplifiers. SInce the speaker is 94DB the Atma-sphere would be ideal. However these amps are large and for a small room I cant justify keeping this much power.

So I have decided to sell everything I have and start again for something smaller.


Im looking for a 2 Way horn speaker which is suitable for a small room the size of the room is approx. If horn is not possible then something with an AMT or Raal Ribbon. I may purchase a subwoofer later on to add to the system.

I prefer horns more but something which is smooth. Iv been looking at the JBL Horns speakers but they are more studio range and not sure if this would be ideal.


My room size:

3 Meters long by 3. 2 meters wide.

Distance from speaker approx. 1.8 meters.

2 Seating position


DAC and Pre-amp I am just to buy. I have some theatre Quested Studio Amplifiers at hand.

I REALLY like my Adam F7 2-way actives (60 watt woofer; 40 watt ART tweeter). Clean, clear, and smooth. They are billed as "studio monitors" but do not let that scare you off. These are for all-day enjoyable listening. And support your move to downsizing as they are internally powered. Excellent sound.
Any suggestion for a horn speaker? or older 2 way smaller horns? the JBL horns are not smooth enough.

Not tried the Adams yet. are these near field?
hey dragon, i'm somewhat in a similar situation...i'm trying to sell my Vapor Nimbus Black for something smaller without sacrificing too much of the frequency response...i'm looking at Boenicke W8's speakers...in your case, if you want a horn monitor, then there's nothing better than the dc10audio Berlin R speaker...do a search on the internet...
