I owned 10T's for several years. Went to Avalon Eclipse. Went to Goldmund Dialogue. Now have Zu Druids and discovered, much to my wife's delight, that they perform very well smack up against the front wall. No image problem, no bass problem, no kidding. You won't need those big amps though .......... the Druids are very efficient.
Clear upgrade from 10T's?
Here's my story....
My new home set up requires that my Ariel 10T's be fairly close to the wall (12-18 in.) so, though I really have enjoyed them, I'm not getting the best sound.
My question: What should I audition that,is a clear upgrade to the Ariels, and performs at its best near the wall?
I have Bryston 7ST monos driving the 10T's, a Cinepro 3KSE driving the center and surrounds and a Proceed AVP2 pre/pro.
Thanks for any guidance and advice.
