I own a pair of GoldenEar One.Rs. .. full range and excellent soundstage.. worth a listen if you can audition them.. bottom line you need to hear a few of the above recommendations .. so many great options out there..
good luck

Looking for recommendations for a pair of full range speakers for ~8k or under
Marten Oscars, Dynaudio Evoke and Contours, Totems, will all be great choices if you have a chance to try them at home. And then there are about 10 other brands I love, some already listed here. https://www.avantgarde-acoustic.de/en/products.html https://sonneraudio.com/ https://www.gato-audio.com/eu/loudspeakers/bookshelf.html https://www.dali-speakers.com/products/dali-menuet/ https://www.dynaudio.com/home-audio/evoke/evoke-10?c=walnutwood https://www.marten.se/products/ https://www.buchardtaudio.com/shop https://www.josephaudio.com/products https://totemacoustic.com/ https://www.salksound.com/gallery.php https://soundkaos.audio/soundkaos-audio-speakers https://amphion.fi/ http://www.diapason-italia.com/en/index.html https://www.canton.de/en/products/reference-k/ http://www.vienna-acoustics.com/ https://www.indianaline.it/tesi-vinyl-series/ https://www.trenner-friedl.com/index.php?menu=product&sprache=en&second=pharoah |
I saw someone recommend maggies and While I don’t own a pair they are amazing to listen to. I’ve seen Dynaudio C4’s as low as $8800! Dynaudio bass is pretty special, a used pair of meridian dsp 7200’s, Vienna Acoustics listz presentation will put jazz musicians in the room with you. Too many speakers too little time. |
myjostyn, IMHO Tekton makes terrible loudspeakers. They shove any multitude of very cheap drivers in cheap enclosures in arrays that frequently make no sense. They sell because they are cheap and go loud.......When you set up a question like " speaker under 8K" in the title you get all the Tekton clowns chiming in trying to convince us they have found audio nervana with an inferior designed poorly braced junka** cabinet with off the shelf sub par drivers. |
