I recently purchased a YBA passion 100 integrated amplifier (5o wpc)to replace a dying old linn majic integrated. I now want to upgrade my speaker (5 to 6K used market), actually a pair of Meadowlark swift, for something with much more presence and definition that will fill a 24'x24' room with cathedral ceiling.
The rest of the system: Arcam cd73t Slim device +Benchmark DAC1 MacIntosch XLS112 sub MIT interconnects
I mostly listen to small jazz ensembles, world music and classic.
I will upgrade the cdp after purchasing the speakers (I know, I know... the source is the most important piece of equipment but I have the feeling that the Swifts are now the most limiting part of my system).
Since the relatively low output of the amp, will I be able to fill that big of a room. And I am very curious of your sugestions.
I would also suggest the DeVore Fidelity Speakers. They match perfectly well with your YBA amplifier. Flat frequency response with a high sensitivity. Excellent bass response and one of the best speaker for jazz music. There will be no problem with the room.
