There are two fantastic monitors available now that would very much be worth a look. There’s a pair of gorgeous Usher Audio Mini-X DMDs (with a diamond tweeter) here on A’gon for $2200, and a pair of Amphion Argon monitors on US Audio Mart for $1500. If you prefer new, the Silverline Minuet Grand should tick all your boxes as well. All image/soundstage extremely well, and all will likely add a bit of air and openness you seem to be looking for. Best of luck.
Need recommendations on stand mount speakers
So my secondary system consists of the following:
VPI Prime TT + Nagaoka MP500 cart
Parasound JC3+
AR Classic 60 (60 watt tube amp)
Acurus LS 11 line stage preamp
Vandersteen 2ce speakers
my room is rather small, 12 x 13 and I’d like to experiment with some stand mount 2 ways that will have a similar sound to the ole Vandersteens but more open.
Im considering used but my brick and mortar is limited to Magnolia stores. I heard some B&W 2 ways ( not the metal tweeters, but the lower model) and they sounded nice but at $4k +/- that’s more than I’m willing to spend.
Im thinking $2k +/-.
any thoughts?
