Passive Bookshelf Speaker Selection
Putting together a first set-up for exclusively turntable listening. I have narrowed things down to the Fluance RT-85 and NAD C 316BEE but am getting stuck with passive bookshelf speakers. Originally was set on the Klipsch RP-600ms but am having second thoughts given concerns about the potential fatigue and overbearing brightness; I’m wondering if I should go for another option in the $500 range or stick with the Klipsch, which I can get for under 500. I’m considering the KEF Q150s, PSB Alpha P5s, ELAC Debut 2.0 B6.2s, and B&W 607s. Looking for good dynamics that aren’t overwhelming but also warmth.
Ideally, I’d love to go test any of these out but that’s unfortunately not an option right now.
I listen mostly to rock and indie/alternative, and the room is roughly 13x17 ft.
Should I get the Klipsch or head in a different direction? Any help would be appreciated.

For a speaker that punches way above its $350 price point you might look at these. https://www.chanemusiccinema.com/index.php?route=product/product&manufacturer_id=14&product_... If you dont mind the basic black boxes these are a great value. |
But just as you can hear your girlfriend and know its her even if muffled by a blanket that ruins the frequency response, in other words ruins the sound that you hear, when its really her you know it by the patterns. I have already made this point myself. I have golden ears which means i have good listening skills. My hearing is not special. I dont claim to hear 30khz or even 20khz. But I hear things that other audiophiles miss all because i am a superior champion at this. I know what patterns to look for. I use my reference recordings and with those i hear how EVERY speaker is WRONG and BROKEN. ALL speakers on the market are broken because they never consulted me when designing them. They use their measurements to tune their speakers flat as a pancake and then call it a day. Speaker design is a hoax. |
