Genelec 8351b, they’re designed for your criteria. Close to wall, nearfield listening, neutral. Little better but more $$ Dutch and Dutch 8c. In nearfield you wouldn't need a sub with either.
Help! need informed opinion
I am looking for some help in speaker considerations.
My room is 14’ wide 16’ long.
There will be a 12’ vaulted ceiling.
speaker placement can be 12” to 36” from rear wall.
listening position about four to six feet from speakers (nearfield).
I am looking for small bookshelf (on stands) speaker set up.
I prefer rather neutral sound..I play everything from classical to jazz, to Rock.
I do not care for exagerrated highs or lows, need tight well controlled bass and nicely balanced midrange.
i have narrowed things to a few somewhat conventional speakers
Aerial 5t, Dynaudio special 40, Revel M126be
there’s one intriguing option I am considering.
Audience 1+1 v3 (with a subwoofer..REL ?)
any thoughts would really help!
thanks in advance
