Speaker Help

I'm looking for speakers with a nice soft delivery. Meaning full range but not harsh. Some might say a lush midrange. I have a 13' x 16' room and can't use an extremely large speaker. On the other hand I want more than a monitor. I use an aesthetix calypso pre and a modified McCormack DNA-1 amp. Would be buying used. Speakers I have tried; Aerial 8, Vandersteen 2 old version, Gershman rx20 and Salk HT3.thanks for the help.

What did you like or dislike about the ones you mentioned? What's your budget?
Vandy & McCormack is a known good combo. 3A or Quatro might be a starting place. Ever listen to Sonus Fabers? If you can afford them Peak Consults are nice and not too large. Cheers,
Spencer

You don't like the Vandersteen 2's?

Maybe what you need is a CJ integrated instead. :) 

Best,

Budget?  Given your stated preferences I have to ask what you didn't like about the Gershmans?  What are your source components?  The more info you give, the better responses you'll get here.
