Opinions and choices for a small speaker for mid sized room.


Looking for a small form factor speaker that offers versatility, musicality...pretty much audiophile territory. Don’t need deep bass as that what a sub is for. Been looking at many speakers that would play nice with a low powered amp. I plan on using a Keces E40, essentially 34 watts at 8 ohms and about 61 or so at 4 ohms hooked up to a Topping D70S. Moderate listening, say up to mid 80s or so dB at 6-8 feet away, so not real loud. Preferred music is classical piano, some large scale symphonic, folk, blues, some jazz, even some SABATON...and does well for movies too!

The speakers should be capable of accurate tonality/timbre, clarity, instrument separation and offer a more 3D stage versus a flat 2D stage while still offering good dynamics when the music demands it and capable of nice airy highs. Willing to give up deeper bass to have the rest. So, more or less, a speaker that essentially does it all but still not to difficult to drive.
I think alot of people would like a modest, small system that essentially gets you audiophile territory at low to moderate SPLs for a more modest price.
I have Triangle Zetas (essentially a lower dressed Color series) that does nicely but looking for the next level up. I have Focal W series hooked up to a hegel and it’s better, so something that approaches that quality of sound (I guess I am used to cooler side of neutral but warm is fine as long as the bass is tight and relatively fast).

I considered the Omega Super 3 High Output Monitor for its sensitivity but it stands at 16 inches and at the other end, Amphion Helium 410s which are really small but are said to provide what I am looking for per some reviewers opinions.
I really like the Amphion footprint and look whether it’s the helium 410 or 510.
In your own journey, can you recommend either used or new options for me and those like me looking for a quality low power, moderately priced system and how it sounds IYO?

Blumenstein does a wonderful job.  Very efficient for their size and sound is wonderful.  They also do wonderful cabinet work for appearance. 

From there it also gets into how big, is too big.  Guessing something like JBL43XX's might be too big?  These can be found on the used market but can take lots of searching. They have that wonderful full range California sound.  I think your amp has enough to drive. 

Looking at your amp, it would appear that it can create a high current.  Linn does a wonderful job with their Kan's.  I have a pair that are incredible for anything with singing in it and do a wonderful job with piano.  They are based off the LS35A format, which is experiencing new enthusiasm.  They do some later models that are ported for more bass extension but I really like the ones that are closed. 

I heard some Golden Ear, they were okay to me but I know many others have a higher opinion than I do. 

B&W, has a decently good sound.  If you have issues though, they can be some boogers. 

Here's what I would do.  Your unit in question isn't huge.  If you have some stereo stores fairly close, get in your car with Keces and go pay some folks a visit.  Don't bother with the box stores, there stuff is generally marginal and their staff is typically not to well educated on true hi-fi.  If the store is worth its salt, they will work with you and allow you to hook up your amp to the options they have.  Tell them the parameters you are working with, maximum size of "X" and maximum dollars of "Y".  You may or may not want to discuss dollars with them as they will sometimes sell up to get more out of your pocket.  I have found that what you are looking for is that perfect marriage of the 2.  Be sure that you tell yourself you won't commit until you try at least 5 different options.  You may have to go to 3-4 different stores.  When you find the right one, you will know it.  If you don't find the right one, keep searching. 

One thing to bear in mind while doing this.  Your space is different than the one you are listening to at the store.  Things will sound different when you get them home. 

I hope this doesn't sound too extreme but would you buy a car without a test drive?  Go kick some tires and have some fun doing it.

The LSA-10 Signatures available here from the manufacturer for $1200/pr will give you everything you’re looking for and then some.  They go much deeper than the Amphions and are much easier to drive.  Read the reviews.  Best of luck.
