thanks gongli3, My friend has some harbeths that I like a lot. Much more lush in timbre than my paradigms (can't remember the model but on the less expensive end of the line). The Prestiges do better with soundstage and detail though. I'll look into Spendor. I was also interested in Revel. Anyway, thanks for the suggestion
Upgrade for Paradigm Prestige 75F?
I've had a pair of Paradigm Prestige 75Fs for about 3 years now and I really like them. Great detail, soundstage, bass and they look fantastic too. However, I've always been irritated by the high midrange. It seems a little harsh and nasal to me. I listen to A LOT of jazz and I really notice it in saxophones. There is a lack of body and warmth to the sound of the instrument no matter who is playing it. It gets a little fatiguing especially at higher volumes
I'm wondering if folks have a recommendation of a speaker that retains the characteristics that I enjoy in the Paradigms but improve upon that upper midrange? I wouldn't mind recommendations in a higher price-point as I don't mind buying pre-owned
My other equipment is a Peachtree Nova 300
