Bookshelf speakers on a bookshelf (Sad)


Ok, building new house wife killed my stereo ambitions with an awful built in tv console cabinet.  Room is large, there is Sonos in the ceiling and outdoor area so that’s fine for background.  She sold my B&W 802s when we moved but thinks the McIntosh stuff looks cool so that can stay.  MA352 int amp and a mt5 turntable.  I thought there was room for floor standing speakers next to the built in but sadly there isn’t room.  I can put a sub in, budget is whatever, but I don’t want want to turn 20k Focals into $4000 speakers buried on a bookshelf.  Any suggestions?  Thanks, Mark

I will second the Vandersteens. The VLR's are made for bookshelf positioning and if you add a Sub 3 or two, you will own a very capable system- especially if they are driven by the Mac's.

Don't let the diminutive size fool you, these little guys can Rock when you put the juice to them.

If you are near a dealer, I recommend scheduling an audition.
