Looking for Speaker Recommendations


Hi,

I am getting a new system and am looking for speaker recommendations. I will have a ma8950 and will, at least initially, be streaming exclusively. Focal and B & W are too bright and fatiguing. Wilson SabrinaX are good except for the price. Any thoughts? Thanks.

Look for a used pair of Rockport Atria. It would be out of the range but you can stretch a used pair of Atria II will blow the sabrina x away easily. 

outstanding warmer toned speakers without biting treble but plays with lifesize scale and realism, by my experience...

bigger current maggies (1.7i and up)

bigger harbeths and spendor classics (stay away from d-series), grahams

medium to large vandys

some proacs

there may be some others (salk, tyler, among others with good reputations, but i have not owned them)

 

 

you should look at the monitorial gold 200 or 300 Gen 5 very natural neutral sounding speakers that MPD tweeter is the best tweeter on the market right now I believe very three-dimensional wide and deep sound stage.

that's a monitor audio gold 200 or 300 Gen 5 this computer doesn't know how to spell LOL

tekton is mid-fried junk, very flat sounding in two dimensional it's a little company they don't have the money to develop good drivers they buy off the shelf stuff and their cabinets look like absolute crap.
