Best speakers for max. $3000?
I would go with Focal Aria 936, which can be had for $2650 on US Audio Mart - https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649541113-focal-aria-936-audio-speakers/ The HSU sub is a great sub, keep it and pair with 936. I have the exact same configuration in one of my systems and the sound quality is amazing. |
Thanks for the replies! My room is about 20 feet long. Half of
it is 20 feet wide and the other part is 14 feet wide. Sort of an L
shape. As for music I listen to everything from jazz to Meshuggah and everything in between. Allman Bros to Yes. Not much classical. I use a VPI Scoutmaster II table and a Cambridge Audio cd transport that's relatively inexpensive. The DAC is a Bryston BDA-1. Currently I keep the Mirages around 3 or 4 feet from the back wall and around 4 feet from the sides. The room has some soft stuff on the front and rear wall to try and help the sound a bit. It seems like a fairly good room as long as you stay out of the corners! And I listen at moderate volumes because I find things get a bit harsh if it gets too loud. I'm not sure if the harshness is the speakers or the room. I'd play it louder if it stayed smoother. Thanks all! |
