You can go far with 5k budget. Harbeth is a great match for Hegel.
Help with high end bookshelf speakers
I need help please. Past few years I'm gone through a myriad of speakers and now my wife is relegating me to a third bedroom for a dedicated listing space. I'm trying to figure out what kind of bookshelf speakers I can use with a Hegel 390, Auralic, Denafrips DAC in an 11x12 room. Trying to decide if I need to change my whole system or find something that works with what I have.
Thanks everyone

@renosteve -- you've been asked repeatedly about your current system -- particularly the speakers -- and you've given several replies without ever answering the question. Why? Keeping things a secret makes it harder to give suggestions that will work for you (assuming, of course, that you happen to like your current system.)

Misstl questions WHY I ask about speakers, its due to change of location and terrible room acoustics. When moving I kept the core system but sold speakers thinking I would purchase some that fit best in the new house. Purchased a set of KRF R3 meta to test how the room reacted, it's very discouraging. Resolved myself to g dedicated listening space in nearfield just trying to decide if I want to sell out to surround sound or a basic background system for the living room. Unfortunately like everything else with this move, including my wife is a challenge. I'd like to build a TT system up again once I get the core set. Since I am a old wannabe audiophile I'm trying to avoid to doing to do the same thing over and over again. What's the definition of crazy?

Check out the Revival Audio Atalante 3 monitors. They're responsible for me stopping right where I'm at. I'll only move up to the bigger Atalante 5 if I ever get a bigger place. Designed and made in France, nothing outsourced. The owner was lead speaker designer for 7 years at Dynaudio and did the same at Focal/JM Labs and before that he worked for Altec Lansing. Speakers are proprietary-nothing off the shelf. Knows a thing or two about speaker design. All the best, |
