What combo would you choose and why


Hey Agoners,

I have the following equipment:

Simaudio i3

Schiit Saga+

Icepower 125ASX amp

Audioengine B2 BT receiver

Odyssey Lorelei floorstanders w/kismet upgrades

Revel M20 engineering standard standmounters

Audio Nirvana alnico 8" full rangers running in free air, i.e.no cab and no baffle

Two Martin Logan Abyss subwoofers

All connections are OCC

I listen to Gardot, Krall, Peyroux and various acoustic guitarists

Room is 14x20 with carpets and lovesacs all over the place

Given all that, what would be your best combo of components to use?

I listen to an average 60db volume.

Thanks all

I'd run the Sim I3 into the Loreleis (great, under-appreciated speakers!) and try the subs w/them too. 

I'd stack two lovesacs, because from the little I've seen about them, I'd working on the assumption that your ears would be pretty low relative to the tweeters sitting on one. If that's not the case, please ignore that suggestion. 

Are we still having fun? Or you planning to jump on my case too? Cheers,

Spencer

I would (did) get all the stuff from the same manufacturer.....they will work well together

Thank you for the response Spencer, appreciate it! For sure the Sim and Odyssey combo makes good musical sense in my opinion as well.

Yes, it's all about enjoyment of the sounds and fun along the way for me.

Good point about same manufacturer, been considering going to all Odyssey equipment to complement the Loreleis. From what I've read, Klaus is quite the character too.

Cheers back and Merry Christmas.

How can anyone else know what to do with your equipment?

I'd put it on Reverb. Post haste.

 

Does your system allow the music to move you? Does it put a smile on your face? I think for me to give you an answer,I would have to hear your system.  It may or may not check all the boxes.  It looks on paper like a very nicely assembled system with the capability of changing flavors. That’s the approach I have taken,and it works for me. However,I’m not everyone.  How’s that for a non answer?  Lol! Enjoy the journey.
