Fritz carbon 7SE MK 2, Upgrade

I hate the title above, but didn't know how to phrase it. Current system is secondary one, but, great otherwise. ATI  6002 AMP, Benchmark LA-4 preamp,  Meitner DAC MA1 V2, Bricasti M5, above mentioned FRITZ speakers, SVS SB 3000 SUB, Streaming Audirvana via Qobuz. 13x14' room, open door to bathroom and another to common hallway. ONLY play Rock and roll  85 to low 90's    Zeppelin, Rush, Pink Floyd, I could go on. Love my FRITZ, not sure why I'm posting. (will never sell)     Is there a speaker that is stand amount (bookshelf),  possibly small floor stander that will play superior to what I have (rock and roll) that is a dramatic upgrade sound wise. Will be keeping sub in place, currently crossed at 60.  Have been looking off and on for Joseph audio pulsar Graphene, whether that is the correct direction.  Have no way of demoing speaker in house, live an hour from Nashville. Willing to drive some though!  Looking used up to 6k, a bucket list speaker, if you will. You folks at audiogon have helped me in the past, thank you all very much. Robert TN

Congrats on the decision, I really do like CODA gear. I own and adore the CODA S5.5, especially with a great tube preamp like the Aric Audio Motherlode XL.

I too moved my Lazy Boy out of my listening area after a friend suggested it may be altering how I receive the music. After doing some research I changed it out with an Ikea Poang (around $300), and it's great. Once my listening room is finished, I may also look into a Herman Miller Eames replica which seems to be popular, but that's around $2,000 in leather.

Mike is a great guy, and I'd definitely take his recommendations; I bought my S5.5 from him and will not hesitate to buy from him in the future. He's also within a reasonable drive from me should I want to demo some of his gear
