OP your speakers description is Chenry s Omega Super Alnico recommending they are superb on vocal, and very musically dynamic.If you have budget nice sub Rel from TMRaudio is listed.My friend surprised me to listen to them. This Alnico are the speakers to make me realize my system is not even musical.They did challenge me to work hard on my system. Only problem Your only best bet is used. Maybe the waiting period is now too long or Lois is even taking order now. Good luck to you.
Seeking speakers under $3K for 10x12 ft room and driven by 20wpc tube amp
I currently have a pair of Apogee Acoustics Centaur Minors driven by a new Black Ice integrated tube amp. The small but dedicated listening room means I’m doing near-field listening with me and the speakers forming a 6’ triangle. As you might expect, these speakers have terrific midrange but at 85dB sensitivity they are a bit difficult to drive and feel limited in dynamics. The room is acoustically treated.
I almost exclusively listen to small combo acoustic jazz and vocals and I’m seeking recommendations for something easier to drive and more dynamic that provides a more “palpable presence” of the musicians when played at louder levels. Prefer small floorstanders for aesthetics but not essential and preferably a brand where I might have a chance to audition them (I’m in SoCal). Also open to used (e.g. something like Wilson Cubs). TIA!
p.s. thanks for the Sonus faber suggestion.

@yogiboy , the specs say they only require 25wpc which means they must be an easy load to drive, yet their sensitivity is rated as 84. I guess it is due to the impedance 8 ohm nominal) only dropping to 6.6? |
which Fritz speakers do you have? @immatthewj I have the Carbon 6s. |
@immatthewj Those non ported speakers would be fine in the size room and type of music that the OP listens to! He should make an offer on them!! |
