You have some excellent speakers on your list! I went through a similar process/decision recently. Take your time, try to listen to as many on your list as possible and go with the pair that sings best to you. Putting reviews, opinions, specs and objective data aside, what sound will make you smile ear to ear when the music starts. You’ll have a few where you’ll try to justify they’re as good as your favorite. Cheers and enjoy the music!
Speaker List narrowed down…
This is the final post in a follow up to my two previous posts of “Looking for a narrow baffle small footprint speaker” and “My wife weighed in she wants piano white tower/bookshelf “
Details:
Price range - below $25k
Color: Flexible now but Aesthetics count as it’s a centerpiece to our new gathering room
Also, the only source will be a turntable - Macintosh MT-10 and MP-100 (to be purchased and that’s it), amp is the Rose hifi RS 520 which is 250 wpc and I value the mid-range.
I have pictures of my room but no idea how to post (audiogon clearly hasn’t updated their technology from 30 years ago).
Final Choices with notes:
Fyne Audio 8 (new) or 10 used
Estalon Aura (but too close to wall an issue?),
Reynaud Abscisse Jubilee (beautiful how’s the midrange?)
YG Acoustics 3, (Looks nice narrow baffle)
PS Audio FR20 or 10, (even the 10may be too big)
Perilstein S7T.
Focal Sopra 3
THOUGHTS?
