Sonus Faber Venere is relaxed quiet a bit in the upper mids/low treble, enough so that some distorted guitars for metal sound overly dark imho. Sounds great on other sources though.
speakers that are a little laid back in the mids
I'm just curious what full range speaker people have found where the mids, voices etc are not so up front. I have had my share of speakers and some I considered to be very good but over time seem to be on top of you. Not necessarily harsh however. My room is 13 x 16 and I have used tubes and ss.

@dpm2340 not only the distance to the front wall that matters but also how close the speakers are to each other. Creating more space between the speakers relaxes the mids. Moving them close together will bump up midbass and midrange. You have to play around with speaker placement. if that doesn’t help, look into what’s upstream - components and cables. |
The new SVS Ultra Evolution speakers are VERY laid back. When I heard them, they were way too dead for my taste, but maybe to others... https://www.stereophile.com/index.html
