Need speaker suggestions please
I'm in the market for pre-owned speakers in the $2,000 to $2,500 range. I just sold my Canton RCL speakers which I thought were somewhat bright and were weak on soundstage qualities. I listen to primarily jazz and vocals and generally do not listen beyond 9 o'clock volume levels.
I have a fairly large listening room, 20' X 24' with 17 foot ceilings and I want a speaker that can fill the room with sound. Even though the room is large, I have some pretty severe limitations on speaker placement. I can only get them about 2 feet from the rear wall and one will have to be slightly toed-in due to my corner fireplace. They will be about 8 feet apart.
I do not particularly care about real low bass. I'm looking for silky smooth midrange and highs. I want a warm but accurate sound with a deep soundstage.
I am currently using a Cary 2A3 amp with 15 wpc. My preamp is a Threshold T3. California Audio Labs Icon Mark II CD player that I intend to replace with a tube CD player.
Thanks.
