2. speakers
  3. 1090441258

Which of these would you buy?

Here are my prefrences/gear. I have a small room and like Alt. rock but listen to a bit of everything. I want speakers that are forward, dynamic, clear, powerful, and have bass. Ill be driving the speakers with a Jolida 302B tube amp. I have IXOS Super Gamma 7 bi-wire and Audience Conductor interconnects.

Here are my choices:
Vandersteen 3, Audio Physic Spark I, PSB Gold-I, Spendor S6, JM Labs Chorus 726 S

Any speakers I should eliminate? Any I should add? What would you get?

Thanks :D

6ft is too close for the Vandy 3. I would eliminate that.

If you like forward, dynamic, and clear sound, you might want to add the Energy Veritas line to your short list.

Could the energy speakers be powered and sound well with my Jolida 302B Tube amp? Its 50 WPC

The Energy Veritas are not that difficult to drive. I think 50W tube power should be enough; especially for a small room and near field listening. But there are more than just wattage when matching speaker with amp. I cannot tell you how they will sound together since I have not heard Jolida driving Veritas.

The Veritas are very lively speakers. They are a bit too aggressive to my taste but I think you might like them. I suggest you give them a listen and decide.
