Speakers - Your "Safest" Choice

@gnoworyta

You might consider YG Acoustics Peaks series: wonderful speakers. I was very close to buying a pair.

I also have a pair of Yamaha NS-5000s driven by Bel Canto Black EX and love them.

Speakers are one part of a system. I usually spend more on electronics and cables than speakers. Until they are in your house and set up properly, with your equipment, you can only predict how they will sound. It is like discussing engines not installed in a car. Only once the engine is in the car will you know how the car performs.

as I add more and more speakers, it may help https://speakerchoices.com/

Somewhere around the JBL and Klipsch Heresys honestly.  The top end Vandersteen are in the range but for the type of music being played I think a horn loaded box that isn't too demanding on amplification is the way to go.

In the $20k range I would look at the KEF Reference 5 Meta.  $22K hand built towers. Wish I could afford them!

@markalarsen ​​​which YG Peaks speakers did you hear and how would you compare them to your JA Perspective2s?
