Warm but holographic & forward vocals.


Is there such a speaker?  I’m sure there is but I haven’t heard one myself as I haven’t listened to a variety of speakers in some time. 
 

Looking to move on from my Tekton DI’s (incredible speaker) and move to something a bit more lush, warm in midrange but then with a forward (not bright) holographic type vocals. 
 

Bookshelf/tower, doesn’t matter but want something smaller than the Tekton, which is pretty much everything lol. 
 

under $5k used, lower is better.

I would look at a ribbon/AMT/planar that is on the warmer side. Raidho, Audiovector, Magnepan, MBL would be interesting options. There is definitely an Audiovector dealer in San Francisco.  They deliver an immersive experience that surrounds you.  None of these are particularly bright though in the case of MBL, a little room treatment might be required.  

A middle ground would be to listen to something like Wilson Benesch or Vivid which will not sound recessed and definitely be a bit more forward. Nothing about WB is bright. Vivid can drift that way with the wrong amplification. I know there is a Vivid dealer in San Fran and was told there is a new WB dealer in NorCal but not sure where.

Full disclosure, I am a Raidho, Vivid, and Wilson Benesh dealer. I have no affiliation with the other brands other that I have heard them and think they are great products. Good luck
