Smallish room speakers

For now I'd stay with your LS50 and SVS 1000Pro combination and work to position it the best that you can. Sometimes a little digital equalization can help a lot. I have 3 sealed SVS subs & 2 RELs. Both are good. Your SVS is great for those speakers.

Sad to hear you were talked into Tekton with the most biased person out there. I've heard them plenty at shows and they never floated my boat. Seemed homemade to a very large degree, and I get nervous about 'one-of' designs that no one else has thought worthwhile to emulate.   Those LS50s have been reviewed far too positively to have been discounted so easily. Sell the Tektons. Good luck!

I have had my LS50’s for the last 9 years. I can see another decade of use. They work best in the smaller rooms and having room correction is ideal to fix those first reflections. Accoustic panels also the trick for the LS50’s in a small room.

I use mine with an all Benchmark stack. The LS50s are a speakers than I will never sell.

BTW - If you are looking at the Reference 1 (which may be coming down in price soon with the META upgrades)  you should also conside the Magico A1 which maybe even easier to place in the small room.

Warfdale 4.1 are very nice speakers for small rooms. Get some cheap stands from Monoprice. They are great for abuot $150. If you ar up to building a pair, CSS Audio P215 speakers are very good. About $600 built. Easy job. Glue wood, solder crossover which is foolproof. For more money you can get the enhanced crossover parts. Surprisingly good. I have built three sets of their speakers and all have been very to my taste. If you can handle it, for not much more the Criton X will give you more bass with a seven inch woofer. I selected these after testing a dozen smal speakers in the last two years.
