Looking for speaker recommendations that I can purchase on Amazon.com


Budget: under US$5000 and would prefer a price point of less than $3000/pair. The most expensive speakers I have owned so far are Polk RTi A7's, so this will be a big jump for me.

Purpose: music

Room: I tend to move every few years, so I don't want speakers that will work best only with very specific room conditions. Currently, I will be using these in a medium size room of about 22 feet x 18 feet. The room has carpet and window treatments.

Music sources: CD's, lossless music files stored on computer and MP3's when that's all I have available. I don't ahve any SACD's yet, but I plan on purchasing more high quality music once I have this system set up.

Music styles: acoustic, Indian classical (sitar, srangi, flute), alternative rock (Portugal. The Man, Sleeping with Sirens, etc.), older rock (e.g., Rush).

The speakers should sound good playing the Tanpura (aka Tambura). It is a classical Indian accompaniment instrument in the "drone" category. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tanpura) Example of sound here:

With bad equipment that sound is fatiguing to me. Live it is beautiful and relaxing. Hopefully I can find speakers that will do it justice.

Personal Preferences: I am looking for non-fatiguing, warm, musical qualities. In another discussion topic here on this forum, @mtrot and I agreed about "smooth, sweet, soft, silky treble" and "shimmery, airy cymbals" as goals.

Amplifier: Yamaha P5000S

DAC: to be determined, but probably something like the Teac NT-503

Finally, the speakers of choice must be sold on Amazon.com, Bestbuy.com (or possibly some other similar retail website). I have personal reasons for this limitation. It isn't always true that I will need to buy all my speakers or audio gear from one of these sites, but for the moment, it is a requirement. Please don't recommend anything that isn't available on one of these sites. Thanks.

Vandersteens are way more sophisticated than a Box
I heard the brand mentioned above last night again in one room the Vandersteen 3A Sigs another easy choice
Vandersteen phase and time correct use propitiatory drivers in a stepped baffle-less muli enclosure to negate unwanted boxiness and reflections that add artificial brightness. All drivers are in sinc with the pulse of the microphone preserving all the music's fundamentals and overtones intact.
 Unlike other speakers where some drivers in phase and others 180 out.
Kavi Alexander used these to master A meeting by the river. Rye Cooder Indian recording artist Hindustani Virtuoso Bhatt playing together won a recording achievement.
Vandersteen would want you to have the personal support that you deserve. The promise of making sure performance is delivered with all the details dealt with where mail order clerks just aren’t trained for this
Your call on what you deserve.

People who can’t be bothered to proof read their own professional work aren’t people who’s opinions I give much value to.

I’m pretty sure that should be, whose opinions I give much value to. I agree by the way. 😄
there are lots of well reviewed speakers in your price range...some you will like, some not...a review is simply one person's opinion, with different equipment in a different room with often unknown musical preferences....
