Silverline Preludes (not the "Plus" version) have little alloy woofers in a D'Appolito array and the imaging of mini monitors, albeit with useable bass…a screen over the alloy tweeters for "grill off" no worries listening, and sound really friggin' good with a sub or two. The tone appeals to me as it's somewhat neutral, and efficient enough to respond well to a modest (60 watts or so per side) tube amp. I "auditioned" these at a friend's house a few years ago and consequently found a clean used pair online for 400 bucks…love them things, and they sound better with single runs of wire…all good.
Good looking Towers for < $2000?
Going to upgrade from my Paradigm Studio-20 V5s. These are on stands.
I've decided to go with towers this time. I don't like stands that much.
Anyway, for living room 2ch music. WAF and attractiveness are important for the living room.
Not looking for black rectangular boxes.
I tend to like moderate/soft levels. Jazz, folk, classical, new age, some rock.
I am also looking for a bit more bass than the Studio 20s give me (54Hz low-freq).
Salk looks nice and gets great reviews (SongBirds, SongTowers).
How are PSB? Any other good suggestions?
Thx,
Rob
