two channel speaker/equipment consultant

Where are you located?   You really should find a dealer or two close by where you can listen and see things in person especially when spending $$$

Do you have electronics now or will you need an amp and other gear?

I have an idea that might be very helpful.  PM me — I was trying to PM you but apparently I don’t have that capability for some reason.  

@soix It's because he's the OP if @mikeyb9115 replies to the thread you can click his name and send a PM.

@oddiofyl im in Kansas City.  Wyresd4sound monoblocks, Eggleston Kiva’s (bought new August 2023 <20 hours) and Auralic front end.  I’m open to components but would like to start with new speakers 

@soix i sent you a PM. You can email me at mwb9115@gmail.com if PM isn’t coming thru

thanks much to all!

You don't need a consultant just your own ears. Get out to hear as many speakers as you can and you will soon find out what you like or don't like.
