Best Speakers to Audition in the $5-10k range?


I am looking to audition some speakers that are not massive in size with a large sound stage and lots of air that are fairly detailed in the $5-10k range that will sound good off of an Ayre V-3 amp and Krell Showcase Pre/Pro. They will be used for 90% home theater. Any suggestions?

Good grief I didn't even notice. Oz, nice catch!

Hey, Mrjstark were you bored or something?

Perhaps he is a time traveler!
Nah. For passive speakers, for HT dubties, not too large, I like the Wilson Cub III's, er whatever. Refinement, high sensitivity, dual mid/woofs for reinforcement, speed, and less distortion. Overall superb clarity. Yeah, that's good
Looks like Kmiller5 ended up with Vandesteen Quatros:

"Vandersteen Quatro ($7800)
Four-way class A speaker with 300 watt built in subs. I am using them with the balanced crossover and they are amazing."
That's from his virtual system.
