I would try an efficient floorstander or a high quality two way and add a subwoofer. Tube amps like to see a high impedance of 8 ohms or more so choose wisely. I would try tekton or zu audio in your price range.
Full range speaker for rogue 90 or 100 wpc amp.
I need your suggestions for full range floorstanding or other that can be driven by my rogue magnum 90 easily. I have no dealer close-by to listen to any. I am using a baetis streamer with a Rogue rp-5 pre and the magnum 90. My room is 13' x 16'. I listen to male and female jazz singers. Some classic rock. My budget is 1,000-2,000 bucks. I have even considered DIY.
thanks

Interestingly when Herb Reichert reviewed the Rogue Stereo 100 he paired the amp with Harberth M30.2, KEF LS50, and Maggie .7 and liked them all...perhaps the Harbeth's best. He never once tried a higher impedance/high sensitivity speaker. Perhaps the peppy 100 watts obviated the need for a "traditional" tube-friendly speaker although he noted that the amp didn't seem any more powerful than his Pass XA25....in fact the Rogue seemed less alive, open, and dynamic. It would have been interesting if he had tried an 8 ohm/90+dB speaker to compare to the rest. https://www.stereophile.com/content/rogue-audio-stereo-100-power-amplifier |
