I have the MS5's along with a Velodyne subwoofer. Amp is a McIntosh MC 7300 and a Mcintosh preamp C36, Nordost speaker cables, interconnects. I find the MS5's to be more revealing of source components than cables and they like power and a large room. If they are within your budget then you won't be disappointed.
Dali Helicon 800 mk2 or Euphonia MS5
I have a pair of Helicon 800 mk 1. They have more "warmth" to them than I would like. I am not running any components that anyone would ever say are warm. I was wondering if a move to the mk 2 series would be better or to the Euphonia line. It seems on audiogon it would be the most cost effective to move to the MS 4. Has anyone compared these? I have a lot of options in considering the 400 mk2, the Euphonia MS 4 or MS 5. Thanks for any input.
