Speaker upgrade


Good morning all, hope everyone is well.

My planned HIFI change for 2023 is a change in loudspeakers. My top contenders are JBL L100, Klipsch Forte IV or Corwall IV’s, another couple I am very interested in are the Volit Razz, and possibly the Paradigm F80.

System consists of Rogue RP-1, Rogue Atlas Mag III, Line Magnetic CD-24, MOFI Master deck and Master tracker.

Room is an untreated living room 15x15, hardwood with thick throw rug and lightly furnished.

I have listened to the Klipsch and the Paradigm, enjoyed them both. They are different animals as one would imagine.

I listen to mostly Jazz, Rock and "American Roots" (not modern country).

Thoughts and suggestions appreciated.

Listen to more speakers and listen to your three favorite songs, one from each genre. The advice above from @ghdprentice ​​​​@doyle3433 Doyle is solid. It’s going to be hard to find the perfect speaker for all three genre’s in my experience.

What are your current speakers, what improvements are you looking for, what sound characteristics are most important to you, and what’s your budget?

@soix Currently I have a pair of Tyler Timekeeper and they are beautiful. They will be moving to a different system. They are very sweet, very musical, nice soundstage. I feel I'm looking for more weight, loudness / dynamics..

Klipsch have horrible Xover parts all China specials ,how would I know ,

I have been upgrading speakers for 20 years and owned 3 Of Klipsch top Heritage speakers.

you are much better off per $$dollar spent with Spatial audio technologies 

they use world class Beyma tweeter,mid driver and powered sub built in ,

land Xover upgrade choices and 4-5:models to choose from Clayton Shaw is a very good guy and engineer .if you call him he will answer any questions and these speakers are excellent midsize open baffle speakers ,with a money back trial period. Just check them out great build, as well as a very defined natural presentation ,not beamy and in your face ,a very Big sweetspot and excellent tight tuneful Bass.
