What If?

Crazy question. Lets say that you have owned Klipschorns for the last 20 years and that you will never sell them. You have a room though that is fairly large (17.5'w x 26'L x 9' H) and your are thinking that it's time to add another set of speakers in the room; something entirely different, just for fun, just to switch around too on ocassion... The KHorns are in the corners so they are pretty much out of the way.... You're a tube-a-phile with a Hovland HP-100, and a set of VTL 125's MB with EL34's. You have a very nice table; an Aries 3 with a DV507 MKII arm...

What speakers would you add into the room? Of course they cannot be too HUGE because most likley they would be moved out of the sound field when listening to the Khorns. Got any ideas?

thanks

Salk Songtowers are relatively inexpensive floorstanders with a small footprint and s/b be relatively easy to move "out the way".

How about Quad 988's or 989's? The room length to width should be favorable and Quads are awesome with tube power. They are fairly light and compact so you should be able to move them out of the way. You will get a sound of beauty and finesse. When you want loud, fire up the k horns.
