Im looking into them and the LS50 to see if i can pair it with a smaller faster subwoofer as well, but there are other speakers i have in mind too. Not sure if the KEF will live up to expectation.
Downsizing Setup Looking for Small 2 Way speakers. Selling my Perfect Storm Vapor Audio.
Hi All,
Im on the verge now to downsizing my system for various reasons, I have a baby on the way and we are planning to move out of our home into something more smaller but easier to maintain. My wife is finding the current home too expensive and interior design for our current house on quote is scary.
I placed an order with Vapor Audio The Perfect Storm White Speakers. It was supposed to be installed into a 8 meter long room now we are planning to move out and I never took delivery for the speakers. They are up for sale on Audiogon and so are brand new Atma-Sphere MA2 Amplifiers. SInce the speaker is 94DB the Atma-sphere would be ideal. However these amps are large and for a small room I cant justify keeping this much power.
So I have decided to sell everything I have and start again for something smaller.
Im looking for a 2 Way horn speaker which is suitable for a small room the size of the room is approx. If horn is not possible then something with an AMT or Raal Ribbon. I may purchase a subwoofer later on to add to the system.
I prefer horns more but something which is smooth. Iv been looking at the JBL Horns speakers but they are more studio range and not sure if this would be ideal.
My room size:
3 Meters long by 3. 2 meters wide.
Distance from speaker approx. 1.8 meters.
2 Seating position
DAC and Pre-amp I am just to buy. I have some theatre Quested Studio Amplifiers at hand.

in smaller spaces, I have found the closed pipe designs satisfying. The Abbeys are really nice looking as well. I agree that a smaller subwoofer would be helpful, I run mine with Vandersteen W2 with an updated amplifier in the mountain cabin as the main system, but listen mostly to classical music , lots of chamber and choral things. What kind of music are you favoring? |
I am in a very similar situation, looking for desktop speakers and I'm interested in trying both a horn variety and a RAAL ribbon. I really the suggestion of the dc10 Berlin R for a horn. I will check that out. For a RAAL version, I am going to go with Selah Audio (http://www.selahaudio.com/) I've worked with Rick on a front LCR set and 2 subs. He is great to work with and his stuff is fantastic. He loves RAAL tweeters. |
