Full range speakers, 40"-44" max height


I do not like tall speakers, especially when the tweeters sit high.

My height requirement fulfill speakers like Wilson Sophia, WP even Sasha or Meridian 7000 (but this is digital only).

Any other comparable ones in quality with the above?

And I need to stay under 10k used market.

Hi piramus,

The Meridian DSPs are impressive.  I had the Meridian DSP5500s as my mains for about 10 years- they are awesome speakers.  I also spent some time with the DSP7000s which were definitely a step above the 5500s.

Two things about the Meridian DSPs that stand out for me- 1) amazing and stunning bass response for the size of the cabinets.  2) Ability to resolve fine details at low volumes.

Daedalus Ulysses V2. I also owned the Sophia and found the Ulysses to have the same type of wonderful sound, but with a more holographic dimension. MTM design places the tweeters at ideal height for listening. Taller than the Sopha but not as heavy.

Ascend Acoustics Sierra Tower ELX V2 with your choice of tweeter (RAAL ribbon or TITAN dome) or if you want to save some money, the non-ELX tower or the Sierra LX bookshelf.

BMR Towers. 43" high, phenomenal performance at $4000. Or JBL Project Array 1400s, if you can find them. They’re gonna be 6-8 thousand bucks if you can. Not many people turn loose of them. They’re about 45" high. Best imaging I’ve experienced.

Stereophile website has a great review of them from about ten years ago.

 

+1 for the Ascend Acoustics. I haven’t owned the towers, but the Sierra 2 EX is a very fine speaker. I suspect it’s similar to the BMR Tower, using the same family of drivers, top and bottom.

Totem Acoustic Element Metal driven by tubes… to my ears sounds better than Wison’s, images a sound stage that fills a room.
