Monitor Audio Gold 100 6G. 8" 3-way, Port tuned to 38Hz, 3" midrange, ribbon tweeter. 500W power handling. All combine for greater range and dynamic range than are possible in most standmount/bookshelf. The fact that the also have great soundstaging and imaging combined with a undeniable 'PRAT' make for a compelling speaker that happens to fit the 'bookshelf' definition. I suggest you read the reviews and listen for yourself. . https://www.monitoraudio.com/en/product-ranges/gold-series-6g/gold-100-6g/
looking for bookshelves - Another usual boring speaker discussion
i am looking for bookshelf speakers to pair with hegel H400 in my condo. i have Wilson watt puppies in my house and absolutely love the sound of the WPs 50th anniversary.. WPs are paired with d'agostino momentum C2 and progression s350.
i will be placing them on a granite shelf near a wall. sort of a klitchen counter.
i listened to SF Amators and BW 805d4, both somewhat laid back, SF Amators i did not like at all. too warm, bass lower mids were overpowering the treble. Also listened to wilson tune tot- lows are an issue. with the 5.75in woofer.
i am now seriously considering the focal sopra 1. i have not auditioned them yet but will do in next week or 2. i know one can't get a full picture from youtube but i have been listening with headphones to several youtube pistes where they do A-B or even A-B-C.
i find the focals and wilsons sound similar. Wilson's have a bit more clarity in the upper mids but overall similar, so i think i will like them.
Would appreciate suggestions and any more recommendations form the experienced audiophiles herewith vast knowledge base.
thank you
Amar
