I'm another vote for Proac. I have a pair of the Response 2.5s and there are still very few speakers I would buy to replace my 20 year old pair. Match them up with some Audio Research gear and you have a match made in heaven.
Dynaudio vs Harbeth vs ProAc
To quote U2 I still haven’t found what I’m looking for...
Special 40 vs Compact 7ESIII vs Response D2...Considered Ref.3A De Capo BE's but recently heard a BE tweeter and prefer silk and the finish is not what I want...Borderline small/medium size room,well treated and being driven by tubes...Musical taste all over the map with normal listening levels including an occasional ear clearing session...Value decent imaging and staging with an organic tone that allows you to feel the wood of a cello or violin,the stretch and leading edge thump of well recorded drum skins...Not a bass head but need a bit more than current Excite X14’s offer...
