15k USD Speakers for Classical and Pop Extended Listening, Near setup, Low volume


Dear Audiophiles,

I am looking for some speakers for my home office. Speakers would be place 6ft from me on either side of my desk. Speakers will be 8 ft apart.

I love classical music and pop. I am looking for speakers for extended listening at not very high volume. They should be warm and non fatiguing.

I am currently considering following speakers:

1. Monitor Audio Gold 300

2. ATC SCM40

3. Kef R7 Meta

Do you have any other suggestions. Thanks and appreciate your help!

We have to agree with YZ the speakers need to be in front of you. 

When we have had a similar room setup we find it disconcerting to have the sound source be coming from  behind the listener 

The brain wants to be organized with the body's orientation you are facing opposite the sounds direction that will be disorienting over the long term.

Your best bet placing speakers in front of you or getting a set of small speakers you can use on the desk.
