Rush,

You're welcome. Hope you find something you like. The amp is a great amp, and it's well worth matching it off to speakers that allow it to shine. BTW, I agree with Sdatch's recommendation to consider the Totem's Tatu or Forest speakers, just not the rest of Totem's lineup. Remember: you asked for just a list, no theory. :-) . |
As the Bank in Banksfriend, I feel like I've gotta add something here... I like many of the suggestions already made here: Merlins - Biased, but I think you can't beat 'em Proacs - Easy to drive, nice woodwork, good mids, but perhaps lacking a bit of bottom Ref 3As, nice monitors, but won't fill the big room you have Avantgarde horns, in a really bold color; would keep the cats from climing on ;-) IMHO, the Coincidents are bright sounding in the highs and mids. In Trelja's system with the M60s, old Fried Transmission Line speakers just killed the Coincidents. Perhaps that's just a compliment to the Frieds... Note to all: you've got to admire the audiophile whose got new gear enroute to him and is already dreaming up his next upgrade! Adam, you are the best... Spencer |
I know both Adam and Spencer, so I'll chime in here too: Knowing that that M60s are a lot more amp than the wpc specs say, I would love to audition those amps with a pair of the Hyperion HPS938s. They are a relatively easy load to drive, and after seeing them and listening to them in NY in May, I thought they sounded and looked like they should cost 4X the retail price of 4000.00/pair. I believe there is a dealer in North Jersey where you could demo them. The fit and finish is spectacular. A caveat: the first run sold out very quickly, and the wait for a pair may be a little long. http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?cspkr&1098880911&read&keyw&zzhyperion=938 the above link is to a review. |
