Dazed & Confused


Listening to mostly jazz, solo instruments and vocals I find my Martin Logan Spire hybrids to sound awesome, but recently I was listening to some both "Busy" 90’s rock and classical (lots of instruments playing loudly together) and I find the music starts to sound garbled and annoying (to bright), so much so, I turn it off.
I was wondering if you all might have some suggestions on some speakers that would be a little more forgiving with busy/loud music that I could possibly switch over to when listening to different types of music. That is unless I can find speakers that can handle all styles of music, then I would consider taking the hit ($$$) on selling the Spires.

Without getting into room size and dynamics, lets just call it a standard room, I was also looking for something more efficient. The Spires need a huge amount of power (and volume) to sound good. Looking more for something I can listen to loud but also still enjoy the music at a much lower volume if that’s at all possible. Neutral and not to bright.
Living in the sticks, I can’t just jump in the car to go demo speakers. Only once, in the past, did I purchase a set of speakers online and unheard, going solely on the sales person’s recommendations. I learned the hard way to never do that again!

Equipment now: Coda CSiB integrated amp with W4S 2v2 SE Dac running Roon Nucleus.

I also wanted to mention that the Spires have phenomenal base, so much so I sold the 2 subs I was originally using with them. Floor standers and bookshelfs have come along way in SQ these days, but if I need to purchase another set of subs the budget is starting to dwindle.

No vinyl or CD’s, just Tidal.

$3,000 - $5000 budget, new or newer demos.

Thanks for any suggestions or advice you may have to offer!

Sorry, yes inputs! I'm getting spun around here!
Thanks for reply All, yes, I will ask.
After a few hours of listening, the best listening experience, at least for me, seems to be running balance with the DAC (which by the way I love), at full volume. This produces the most lively soundstage for my ears. This set-up may make poor quality recordings sound worse, but if things are right, I really don't think it could sound any better. As long as I'm not hurting anything and W4S gives its blessing, I think I'll stick with the most common term used in these forums and  Enjoy the Music" 
Thanks again to all for your detailed help and advice.
Hi Paul

Have some fun swallow your pride.

Buy a pair of Advent 1's

Even so Stack them.

Your ears will be happy and you will be laughing your way to the bank.

If you dont like them they sell within no time at all.
They play anything you throw at them.

Wood Cabs are preferable.

Always keeping in mind like any speaker the marrying process still exists.


I've swallowed a lot worse. Not that familiar with Advents.
I'll definitely check them out. Thanks ishkabibil
Alot of the problem too is front end...

Streaming Rock on highly resolving systems does not really Jam...

Try Bluetoothing down to a Arcam Rblink
Or Bluesound...
