I agree with Soix's recommendations. I'd also suggest checking out some Macintosh user forums around the web to see what Mac fans have had success with. Synergy is important. With respect to detail and accuracy, you can't go wrong with Thiel 3.7's. Jim Thiel's stated design goal was to create a speaker that would reproduce exactly what it was fed....which is great for those whose front end is top notch....not so great for lesser electronics.
Speaker Choice
I am new to this forum. I have recntly decided to dedicate a room in my house to a use that will be primarily audio with a secondary home theater use. I have started to assemble the components and have acuired the following so far:
McIntosh 2255
McIntosh C33
McIntosh MR78
McIntosh MVP881
McIntosh 7205
I am trying to chosse loudspeakers, preferably in the under $10,000 range per pair. I listened to the B&W 804D's and was totally unimpressed.I was then introduced to Monitor Audio Gold 200's and thought hey were great. I like lots of detail in a speaker. I would like recomendations on other possible speaker choices as well as comments on the Monitor Audios. I have not heard the 300's but those are also a possibility. I am considering a Rega RP6 turntable and a Mac 121 processore. All opinions would be welcome.
