My first pick would be a pair of SALK Song3 Encore's for $6,000. They sound better than a pair of $20,000 speakers at RMAF. Jim Salk sells direct and by passes the dealer wholesale discounts and as a result uses expensive drivers. They are incredible. That Paradigm Persona for $7,500 is also a great speaker. However, for $6,000, the SALK's are incredible.
Looking for some new floor standing speakers
So I am in the market for some new floor standing speakers. I currently have Dynaudio Contour 20's, which I like,but I am looking for a bit more bass and, let's be honest, I am in the mood for something new. My current setup is a Simaudio ACE and a Cambridge Audio CXN v2, however, I have a NAD M33 on order (for weeks...). I listen to almost anything but rap and country, and just a little classical. I like Prog, New Wave, Grunge, and Jazz mostly. I've not auditioned much yet, but I'd like to get some opinions on what might be the best path or even if I should take that path :). I want to stay below $5k before trade-in and discounts.
The ones on my list to try are:
Focal 936
Revel F208
Goldenear Triton 2+
KEF R7
Love to hear any thoughts!
