A desk is no substitute for heavy speaker stands. I would only keep that budget if you can get them off the desk (beyond the desk). Find where the speakers sound best in the room off the desk on good stands and only then move your desk to where the best sound is. When the speakers are firing toward you with a desk in between, you might also consider treating the desk to dampen reflections.
Looking for nearfield passive speakers that are warm and rich
I really like my ATC Scm7s that I use at my desk but I want something warmer, richer more bassy. Something that does well with vocals and jazz.
Budget is $5000. They are being driven by arc ref5se and pass x350.8, dac is denafrips terminator. Thanks.

@jackd I emailed JMR to ask if their silk in their tweeter is synthetic or natural since i dont buy natural silk for ethical reasons. This was a solid 2 weeks ago I think and still no response. |
@ddd1 I got the speakers up on metal stands but they are on the desk. Since I am pretty much against a wall the only way to get them off would be some kind of wall mount which I'd prefer not to do. Eventually when I move ill do this properly more like a mixing desk/studio. |
