Looking for a great front ported bookshelp speaker recommendation


Hi everyone,

After about a 15 year hiatus from hifi, I'm looking to get back into it. I'm looking for a front ported bookshelf speaker. The reason is that it's going to go inside a cabinet and right against a back wall. My budget is up to $5,000 but the less, the better:) Any advice or guidance would be appreciated.

TIA

Space inside the cabinet will be a big determining factor for what speakers will fit in your allotted space.

I will add Ascend Acoustics Luna

or Ascend Acoustics Duo V2

Both have a RAAL ribbon tweeter and are front ported. The ribbon tweeter limits vertical dispersion somewhat, so standing versus sitting will vary. The Duo will likely fill the space better, but are taller, or wider depending on how you orient them.

Best of luck.
