My wife weighed in…she wants piano white tower/bookshelf

@aj523 will you be doing critical listening in this “gathering room” where there will be a seat for you in the sweet spot where the system sounds the best, and it doesn’t matter if any off-axis listening does not sound that great? Or do you want a more social listening experience where multiple people can enjoy a very good listening experience off-axis and not be fighting for the sweet spot? If you prefer a more social listening experience that sounds good anywhere in the room (but perhaps not as suitable for critical listening), I would consider something like the MBL 120– or at half the price of the 120, I would consider the MBL 126 and then the rest of your budgeted amount on the MBL C51 integrated amp— also available in white and worthy of being a visual centerpiece along with the speakers.

Hi aj523,

I will humbly suggest considering the PureArtFi LS-6. The in stock unit veneered in spalted hackberry with solid walnut baffle on the white version of the stand is quite lovely in the light color palette. Also the concept of PureArtFi is bespoke this enabled as my partner is a professional woodworker with 40 years of experience delivering custom millwork and cabinetry to high-end clients in Colorado. We would love to discuss a custom LS-6 in whites.

Something fun (available in Gloss White)?

If standmounts are also for consideration, Dutch&Dutch 8c are available in white. No subs needed. Full suite: streamer, DAC, DSP, subs, active, of course. Depending on your taste in cabinet design, the Genelec 8351s also come in white. 3-way actives, dual subs in each speaker.
