My suggestion look at a pair of Goldenear Triton Reference speakers, currently discontinued and discounted. Consistently recommended as a Stereophile, class A full range floor standing speakers. Of course, you can always spend more, but you don’t need to. Currently, mated with a Primaluna Evo 300 integrated amplifier, in a comprehensively acoustically treated space. these are end game speakers for me so, I currently, have ordered upgraded crossovers, driver wiring, and speaker binding posts, to get that Nth improvement in sound quality from TG Acoustics. Best of luck to you, life is short, enjoy!
Getting a Divorce and can now buy floor standing speakers
So, I am getting rid of the wife (divorce, I am not burying her in the backyard!) and can now get big floor standing speakers. I currently have a Luxman integrated and model 30 Harbeth speakers, and a very good sub. Very neutral/natural sound, can listen for long sessions. But I don't get a very good image, and it seems a little too laid back. I listen mainly to singer-song writers, both male and female. Lots of acoustic/piano.
There are so many floor standers now, I'd like to shorten the list. Any suggestions to start my search? I am located in southern CA, so I can listen to almost any brand. Price should be under $100K.
I may lose a wife, but so far the freedom/cash is worth it.
Thanks all!
