With your room,budget,DREAM SPEAKER(PMC IB2SE) & easy listening requirement you should have a long hard look at the Wharfedale Linton 85th.Anniversary...You'll save a TON of $ as well as getting a SUPERB speaker!
My second recommendation is the Harbeth M30.2Xd,which is a bit more extended in the treble,even more resolving through the midrange & an easier load on an amplifier...
New room needs new speakers, I need your help
Hello everyone!
I have a new house and a new acoustically treated room, but it is very small: we are talking roughly 12' by 16'.
I use a pair of Dali Euphonia MS4 and I feel they need a bigger room to shine, the volume I need for them to sound full is just too much for my modest room. I really enjoy accurate timbres and I need a beautiful midrange and midbass, I listen mostly to women vocals and jazz.
I am looking for a pair of speakers that will cost me a maximum of 5K on the used market.
I am very sensitive to fatiguing treble, I don't look for absolute treble clarity, I love an easy listening speaker.
My ideal speaker would be the PMC IB2SE which I auditioned extensively, but sadly it is out of my budget.
I am open to your suggestions!
Rest of the system is
Sony Ps-X9 turntable on a Sutherland Phono
Analogue Audio Maestron Anniversary integrated amplifier
Lampizator DAC
Wattson Digital Streamer
Muon Filter
Silent Angel switch
All Luna Mauve Cables
Everything but the amplifier pluggeg in Plixir

I enthusiastically recommend Ryan R610's. I admit I'm kind of a cheerleader for these rather underappreciated speakers, but they do everything right, especially for a small(ish) room like the one you describe. I'm using them in a room that's somewhat bigger than yours (about 22 X 16) but they fill the space extremely well, image precisely, and exhibit a very even tonal balance. They have a very good bass response for their size, though I do use a sub with them. The other thing about these speakers is that they won't break the bank--they retail for about half your stated budget. |
@cooper52 I'm sorry but I have to disagree with this recommendation..I owned the R610's & found them very bright compared to the Fritz Carbon7SE they replaced.. |
@grislybutter It's so annoying trying to send some basic information to another member, only to have the message blocked by admin. Let's try this work around. Where there's a will.......
