15k USD Speakers for Classical and Pop Extended Listening, Near setup, Low volume


Dear Audiophiles,

I am looking for some speakers for my home office. Speakers would be place 6ft from me on either side of my desk. Speakers will be 8 ft apart.

I love classical music and pop. I am looking for speakers for extended listening at not very high volume. They should be warm and non fatiguing.

I am currently considering following speakers:

1. Monitor Audio Gold 300

2. ATC SCM40

3. Kef R7 Meta

Do you have any other suggestions. Thanks and appreciate your help!

Hegel is solid, I would add Primare integrated, you can try it risk from Crutchfield 

@ilikeclassical You should also consider the following. I do not like headphones, but these are. different (especially the (SR1a/SR1b). They do not replace 2-channel for me in my office, but they do serve the purpose of late-night listening. I used to look for gear that sounded great at low volume, which I have, but I now always use the phones late at night.

I have spoken with people who have replaced entire 2-channel systems, such as Magico based to go with the older SR1a. The new stuff is supposed to be even better.

Send me a DM if you are curious about what the heck I am talking about.

I have the Argon one’s and a similar listening situation.I am using them with a Naim Unity atom, as a streamer mostly. Kimber 8tc cables.

An amazingly good set up. I listen to a wide range of music genres.
