Another Speaker Recommendation Request


Greetings Goners,
Just retired and have my new dedicated listening room. Bonus room above garage; 15' wide, 24' deep, 8' ceiling, drywall and carpeted. No WAF to consider. I am all digital with PS Audio kit: BHK stereo 250 amp, BHK pre-amp, Direct Stream DAC and Direct Stream Media Player. Also have Cambridge Audio CXN for streaming and NAS.
Current speakers are Wharfedale Jade 3 stand mounts with HSU subwoofer. Worked well in the previous home, but looking to upgrade. I don't need concert hall performance. I will crank it up on occasion, but mostly solo mid and low level listening. Would like full range floor standers and possibly loss the subwoofer.
Most important attributes for me would be non-fatiguing and imaging. Looking in the $10k range and prefer new vs used. Have considered Spendor D7, PSB Imagine T3 and Focal Electra 1028BE. And shops to demo in Tampa St. Pete area would be appreciated. Thanks!

Seems like you're looking around the $7k price range.  I'd add to your list:
Used Revel F228be, if you can find a setLegacy Audio Signature SEUsed Paradigm Persona 3F

You can’t go wrong with Spendors. I owned many and never had one that did not sound great!
Skip the PSB T3's; they sound terrible.  Muddy bass, but you can pay for the 3 woofers and disconnect one, if that works for you.  The notion of that did not work for me.  I am a huge fan of the old PSB's; and have a pair of the Stratus Gold I's in my B system and a pair of XB's in my shop.  So, I am not anti PSB, just anti new PSB because of the poor sound.

At the listening levels you are describing, have you thought about Martin Logan Summit X's or the newer ML 13's or 15's?  I have seen new old stock summit x's for $5,700 and nominally used 13's for under $10,000 and 15's for $12,000 or so right here on Audiogon.

I like fuller, loud and clean sound, so I went with the EgglestonWorks Viginti's.  A lot more money than what you are considering, but I could not be happier.  A great company building great speakers right here in the U.S.

Trust your ears :)
+1 liamowen! The ML Summit X's NOS at that price ($5700) are a real good deal! I prefer and own ESL's! 
Consider the Goldenear triton 2+ which was used at Axpona this year with PS Audio Stellar line series.
