Bookshelf speaker pairing with subwoofer


I have a pair of REL Ti9 subs in my dedicated listening room which is 12 x 17. I am looking for a pair of bookshelf speakers that would pair well with the subs. Searching on my own and watching reviews has made a choice even worse. So many to choose from. I mostly listen to jazz and blues with some classic rock thrown in. I have a good SACD collection and several dsd files. There are no audiophile stores close to me.

Any input would be appreciated.

Hey @m20j201, look at GR Research X-LS Encore or NX-Bravo. You can build a kit really affordably if you're crafty, or buy pre-built for still an affordable amount. I have their NX-Studios and they absolutely surpass the hype. Honestly given your components and musical taste, you might favor the soft dome tweeter of the X-LS Encore. Worth looking at.

Hey @m20j201, I know there are a ton of people over on AC willing to open their home for a listening session with these speakers, or other GR options. Depending on where you’re located, there’s probably someone within a couple hour drive to get a taste of their "house sound". Or you could head to W. Texas and go straight to the source. smiley
