Look at T+A Talis S300. They look great and sound incredible. They only come in silver or black brushed aluminum. Huge, open sound like I've rarely heard. Vandersteen Quad or Treo would be my other suggestions for speakers that fit into a multi-use room well.
~$15K floorstanders: opinions sought
There a chance I'll be able to make a significant investment in my speakers within a few months, and jump from $4K/pr Focal 926 to something in the 10-15K range. I'm running krell gear and have no intention of changing electronics, they are perfectly suited to my ears - - but if new speakers expose weaknesses, then I'll tackle that later.
Here's the thing: aesthetics matter to me, a lot, and I'm not ashamed to admit it. I love my art and home and music is a huge part of my lifetime joy. These are some of the brands /models that I personally think are beautiful, and I'd love to hear from folks who could speak to a possible pairing with Krell. I like precision, speed, clarity, and firm bottom.
Room is approx 18x20x9. New or used is ok.
Von Schweikert Endeavor SE
Vienna Acoustics Klimt The Music
Magico S3
JBL Synthesis (4700, 9900, etc.)
Spatial (loved the demos I heard but not sure if OB would work in my space)
Appreciate any insight, despite the aesthetic emphasis.

I like both the looks and sound of Boenicke speakers. I think it W8 is below $15k, even the W8SE. If you can find a used speaker you might get a W11 or W11SE. The W11SE+ is said to be even better but more expensive and newer which means it is probably hard to find used. http://hifiknights.com/reviews/speakers/boenicke-audio-w11-se/ |
