Favorite ProAc Tablette and speaker stand?

I'm relocating the audio system to an 8' X 14' room with a french door size opening to the next room. I'd like to revisit ProAc as I really liked my Response 2 speakers from the 90s.

I'm thinking about Tablettes, and I plan to use Tube Audio Lab's WE91A (300B) monos. I had used the Cary 300B monos with the R2s, and it was a great sound.

Any thoughts on your favorite Tablette, or should I look to reconnect with a gently used pair of R2s? Thanks for your input!

I'm familiar with both of them, and although the Tablette is a great little monitor, I think you will be disappointed by the loss of bass extension relative to the Response 2.

Thanks for the feedback Roxy. I was hoping I could get a "newer" model of Tablette that would match the greatness of the 2 - may not be possible... Trying to find nice condition R2 sets is getting harder. They either need a refoam or probably will shortly. Not sure how hard that would be to get it done.

personally I would go with the Response 1sc ... FANTASTIC with a 300B amp inspite of the specs

Leahy,
Don't let that discourage you. I know that they can be refoamed, not from personal experience, but from ads where the seller states that they have been refoamed. You could do a search on refoaming and call a few places. I'm sure you'll find more than one.
Good Luck.

Hi Jrink,

Have you had a chance to hear other small Proacs in relation to the 1SC, and if so, what differences did you hear?

Thanks,

Michael
