Need speaker recommendations.

I need recommendations for speaker brand/models that can be placed relatively close to the front wall without degradation in sound quality. Say, within 1-2 feet. My front wall is ’h’ shaped (side view). There is a 1-ft deep ledge at the height of 2-ft 4-inch from the floor (imagine right half of the letter ’h’) and the overall height of the wall is 9-ft. Front to back wall is 18-ft.

 

Budget under US$8,000. Don’t care between stand-mounted or floor-standing. If a specific partnering amp/preamp are highly desirable (for any reason) please tell me why.

 

Thanks,

Amit

With spl requirement and open to new electronics, the world is your Oyster. Wildcard as others stated is the room / furnishings / potential treatments. Maybe create a virtual system w some photos….so we get sense of the room. Worth a few road trip investments to get a sense of sonic palettes open to you. Visit a variety of dealers. What geo area are you in ?

best to you in music and on your journey
