What are your preferred genres? For example, I'd recommend Harbeth for jazz and more acoustic music, but not so much for rock (as I unfortunately found out). Went through several speakers after that until I settled on Marten Parker Duos about 2 years ago, and I love those.
high end standmounts that do not punish poor recordings?
recently arrived a the realization that the variety of music I listen to simply does not lend itself well to many 'audiophile' speakers
closest I had to my current goal were Dynaudio Special 40's
Next best was Heritage Specials and then Totem element Fire v2 (screeching tweeter on the Totem)
Harbeth 30.2xd's and Super5plus xds definitely did not work for my recordings
shortlist at the moment is Franco Serblin Accordo, KEF Reference 1 meta, Dynaudio Condifence 20
simple system to be paired with my REL Carbon special and Hegel H600 (really love both these pieces)
appreciate any recommendations
