Looking for my Final Pair!!


Been through the high end maelstrom for over 30 years and although I have enjoyed the ride, I desperately want to find speakers that exude dynamics, tone and presence.  I want to be transported to the Village Vanguard where The John Coltrane Quartet are performing any night I desire.  I want to feel the timbre of his sax 🎷. When I close my eyes I want to be enveloped by the atmosphere of the space and awash with the impact and emotion being expressed by the musicians.  I don’t want to hear what the engineers hear after they mix a recording...I want to be in the studio when the tracks are being laid down!  So far, Tannoy Heritage Arden have come to my attention, Klipsch Cornwall IV’s, JBL S4700’s or perhaps Spatial Audio X3’s?  Help

Very cool RIAA...not too far!  A nice IPA or wine TBD awaits your presence 👌🏻  Sticking with the Krell K300i for now...not in budget for Tori IV right now.  The new Krell Class A sound is quite addictive.
Things are settling in nicely...starting to gel and become cohesively expressive.  Soundstaging is starting to expand and images are fleshing out more.  It’s interesting and quite enjoyable to hear better acoustic placement/intelligibility of instruments and voices without them being unnaturally etched or hyper focused!  Everything seems to exist in a more proper relationship to each other which makes the listening experience more authentic and less Hi fi’ish, if you catch my drift?  Smooth but detailed highs are also involving without loosing vibrancy.  Overall I think I chose wisely in stepping off the High End treadmill 👌🏻
