$10-15k speaker - Revel Salon2 / Usher BE-20

Greetings

I want to build a 2-channel stereo setup with speakers that works with all kind of music. I cant stand overly analytical speakers with hot treble. I don´t want listeners fatigue, I know it´s very personal so it´s a tough question.

I Heard a lot of bad things about the Usher on here, that they use cheap parts (Beryllium) etc. but maybe I´ll get the chance to hear them with the DMD.

For amplifiers I´ve been looking at the Pass Labs mono blocks x600.5.

I listen to a lot of Electronic music, so the speaker should be able to deliever powerfull Deep bass and be "fast and Clean".

For volume and lots of bass, Aerial would probably be a good choice. I've seen several HT systems with them and they play very loud and clean.

For better sound quality and not so much volume, a pair of Vandersteen 3's and the matching subs would be very hard to beat. You would also have a lot more setup options with them. The 3's are very neutral but you can move either way depending on equipment and setup. You'll come in way under budget as well.

I agree with Mechans on Beryllium. I know its expensive. The Pass amps I've had were fairly warm sounding, though. I had the older Aleph series amps. Maybe some of the newer models have a different sound. I haven't heard them in a while.
