Best imaging stand mounted speakers?


If you're an imaging freak like me you've probably done all the leg work to narrow down your choices of the best. I would be grateful to have the benefit of your research as, alas, I live in an "audio wasteland" and don't have any way to audition the really good stuff. Please let me know which speakers ended up at the top of your list. Many thanks.

Imaging wise I loved the MErlin TSM-m and the speaker I purchased the Dynaudio 1.3se. the key to both these speakers, leed though with the Merlin, is placement. Moving the speaker foward and back will make a HUGE difference in the sound. You have to really experiment to get it just right but when you do it's worth it!
My vote goes to the little known but incredible Rosinante Dulcineas. A stand-mounted monitor that enjoys the benefits of the proprietary isolation material "Dark Matter" within it's cabinet, while utilizing superb Focal drivers. This speaker is the brainchild of Ric Cummins, inventor and maker of the well respected Argent Room Lenses.

With their dark matter stands, which are included with the speakers, these speakers produce the most captivating soundstage I've ever heard. Imaging is to die for, with great micro and macro detail. Very impressive and enjoyable speakers. They're also easy to drive at 91dB, with a very stable 8 ohm impedence.

Check them out on the Rosinante Website at www.roomlens.com. I'm not an employee of the company, just one of their very satisfied customers. Give Ric a call. He's a great guy and will tell you all you want to know about his products.
