Speaker for Rogue Cronus Magnum with high WAF


I'm speaker shopping ($2.5k budget), and I'd like to poll all Rogue Audio Cronus Magnum owners -- and other Rogue owners -- on their favorite speakers with good WAF. My listening area is fairly large (20' x 28') with a lot of curtain-less windows and little options on acoustical treatments. I listen to mainly vinyl but some lossless files as well, and my tastes range from 60-70s reggae, indie-rock, electronic, Afrobeat and jazz. I had been using a pair of Audio Physic Yaras Bookshelfs and really like them, but they're too small for my room and am not a huge fan of subwoofers. I'm leaning toward floorstanders but could be swayed toward monitors on stands. (I'd love to go with a pair of Vandersteen 2CEs but the wife doesn't approve, and the cat will think they're the best scratching posts ever.) I'm looking for advice from my fellow Rogue owners, and I really don't want to hear "Oh, but if you could just spend $1k more, you'd love the..." -- $2.5k is even a little stretch.

Thanks for your input!

If you cant find a substitute
Try the new Vandersteen Treos
They perform and look pretty
I own the Yara Evolution Bookshelves too and will never get rid of them! They're just too good a speaker that's now discontinued. If/when they need to go into a bigger room such as your's, I'll still keep them and use them elsewhere. Here I was thinking I was the only one with these speakers. But anyway...

If you really like what you've got and are simply looking for more space filling and a step up in sound quality, have you considered the Tempos? They're my favorite in the AP line. There are better models, but I think the Tempo is the sweet spot in lineup. Close call with the Scorpios.

There's a gentleman selling a pair of Tempo IIIs for $900. No connection to the seller, just saying it may be worth investigating.

I haven't owned Tempos nor your integrated, but I'm lead to believe it should have no problems driving them.
