Buying Suggestion

Dear community,

I own an AMC CD9 and an AMC CVT3030 amp. Both have been modified and sound waaay much better than the original.
As speakers I have KEF Q70, which I believe are right now the weak part of the system and for which I am looking for an appropriate upgrade.

In principle I would like to hear a punchier, clearer bass and a more spatial sound in general.

According to my previous dealer (in Vienna, Austria - now I live in CA) for the AMC amp with ca. 2 x 30 Watt power the speakers should have between 89 and 92db sensitivity while the low frequencies impedance should not be lower than 4Ohm.

With this said, I am now looking for second hand speakers and a budget which should not exceed $2k.

What would you suggest?

Thanks a lot!

I believe Sounasega was asking for speaker ideas rather than a path to follow.

Wilsons are generally tube friendly and punchy, but difficult to find under $2k. Maybe if you could extend the budget you could find a Sophia 1. Still I would urge you to listen to one, even if a Sophia 3 at a dealer's, to make sure the Wilson sound suits you.

Another option could be Reference 3A Grand Veenas.
Also look into JBL product lines. They have high end / high efficiency speakers.

Sorry, as you can see I don't have much info regarding the pointed question, but trying to help. Hopefully others will chime in with better insight.

Let us know what you decide to do.
