In that price range you have wonderful options to choose from. Before pulling the trigger, I'd audition both the Raidho's and Borresen. I have Raidho XT-2's which I love. But given their small driver size, they aren't as dynamic as the larger models, but they still slam pretty hard. Maybe the Borresen X-3, just 11K.
Help with speaker selection
Hi all,
I’ve considering upgrading from my beloved Aerial 10T’s which will remain in a second system. What I’m looking to improve from the 10T’s is the detail, while maintaining the extreme listenability the Aerials bring (zero harshness). Also I want to improve in the lower mid bass/bass detail. The 10T’s will play low but the detail could be better.
So far I’ve been impressed with the Sonus Faber Olympica Nova V’s. They really impressed me with all of the attributes I’m looking to improve over my Aerials. They had a wonderfully cohesive presentation with detail and no harshness. The bass was outstanding and articulate.
I’ve only begun shopping so I’m looking for other recommendations to consider. I heard the Aerial 7T’s and was not nearly as impressed as I was with the SF’s.
Others on the list that I haven't heard yet include:
Revel Salon2/Studio2
Aerial 20T V2 (impossible to find!)
Amps will be JC1’s, with a solid state front end (Levinson).
Thanks in advance!!
