Large speaker recommendation


I've lived with the Sonus faber Elipsa speakers for 10+ years. Now thinking about upgrading to something with a bigger sound. Elipsa sounds great with classical music but not so great with pop/percussion type of music in my system/room. I do listen to classical music most of the time though, but hope to get a pair of speakers that are good in both worlds. Have also owned Tekton DI and Audio Solutions Figaro XL (really big, too big) but looking for something better, under $30k used or new, aesthetically pleasing. My system consists of: Mark Levinson No. 33H monos, Mark Levinson No. 523 preamp, Aesthetix Io signature phonostage, Basis Ovasion turntable, Vyger Atlantis turntable, digital components include Okto Dac8 Stereo, Oppo UDP-205, AMR DP-777 dac, Schiit Yggdrasil, and Bryston BDA 3.14. Room dimensions: 20x15x9 ft. Thanks! Ron

20'x15'x9' isn't really a big room, or is it? I'd say a set of KEF, Reference, 5 Meta or Dynaudio, Confidence 30. Have heard both in a similar (a bit bigger) sized rooms and both are truly wonderful. Played with Octave, Canor & Classe' Sigma electronics. If you can listen to either of these speakers I believe you'll be highly impressed. Just my opinion,...
