I auditioned a pair of Cornwalls (III) and felt that if I listened ONLY to rock & roll I’d have purchased them or the IVs (used). They were fun.
Killer Floor Standing Speakers under $4000 for Rock?
polling all ears (subjective I suppose) but would like to hear you people who have heard fairly high end speaker that kick ass in clarity for mostly Rock/ Fusion Jazz at high volumes with killer clean power .
I currently have a :
Marantz PM-11S1 Integrated amp
SVS SB-1000 Sub
NHT 2.3 Towers
Technics SL15
Klipsch/Paradigm/Infinity/B&W/Dynaudio/PSB ???

I have been a crappy musician most of my life. I was looking for the sound of the live music I liked to play and see live. I have always had a revolving system (or evolving) and I have a lot of amps from a dynakit st 70 to adcom 555 (3 of them) whatever. I was super lucky to come across a set of Von Schweikert VR4 speakers last year. For my ear they are the best of anything I have heard or could hope for. Right now they are powered with 2 adcom 555, thru a parasound P5 pre. I am so happy with the set up I am goofy happy when I get to enjoy some music. I have 52 pearl Jam shows on cd I am just starting to go thru. Some stuff is better on cd (live bootlegs) and some better on vinyl. I just got a new copy of exile on main st. Shows off the sound stage. I am just a lurker here, but I didnt think anyone would mention Von Schweikert speakers, and I am a drummer, so I like it loud. enjoy.kruzman |
If you have the space, I don't think you'll find better than the JBL 4722N for this application for under $4k https://www.lightingimages.com/product/jbl-4722n-2-way-screen-array-with-network-passive-application... |
