With a relatively low powered amp you should take care to look at the sensitivity and impedance specs on the speakers you're considering. Some of the speakers on your list are known to need some power to get the best out of them. There is a nice pair of Joseph Audio RM25s for sale here now at a nice price that sound fantastic and don't require much power to drive. Tough to beat at $1295 IMHO. Best of luck.
I'm ready to pull the trigger on some new speakers.looking for some last minute advice
Hey all,
I know that there are too many posts like this when it comes to buying speakers, and I know that the answer is 'what sounds best to me', but maybe there's something that I have overlooked. Maybe someone has had a bad experience, or has been blown away, etc. I hope to buy one of these soon. I have an 80W NAD int amp and my room size is 14x12'
The speakers I've listened to in the last 3 days are :
Golden Ear Triton Two+ Tower
Paradigm 85F
KEF r700
B&Wcm10
revel F206
Focal Aria936
It's not easy to remember what one speaker sounded like when listening to a different one days later.
One dealer won't do an A-B comparison because he believes it's deceiving?
From what I've read, the Golden Ears are either loved or hated.
So any advice is appreciated.
Thanks!
Dan
