Looking for nearfield passive speakers that are warm and rich

Thanks guys. Will look into these.

My atc dealer recommended JMR Folia Jubilee.. said its much warmer than atc. Anyone hear JMR ?

@soix  Either.

Harbeth P3ESR seems like a popular warm option.

@jackd  You like JMR more?

@noromance Interesting option! So that will fit my ARC ?

I heard 6550 Tungsol NOS is another way to get the pre to sound warmer.

@jackd  I am getting an offer of a demo pair of Folia Jubilee for $1200 all in.  Tempting.

@noromance  I like the idea of just swapping the 6550 to tungsol to see what happens. The prior owner actually preferred tungsol and when I had the unit checked by ARC they took the Tungsol, pocketed it and then put in Sovtek.

@mspot currently using dual PSA V1800 18 inch subs with the ATCs ;)

I think my issue with the ATCs is just the treble bite which i want to do tone down.. and maybe a bit more midrange fullness.

Ya I am interested in the p3esr vs JMR folia.

@lanx0003  Sorry if I wasn't clear, bass is not my concern. As I said before I am running my ATCs with dual 18 inch subwoofers in my room. The issue is the top end being too hot and bitey... I want something more relaxed and possible a bit more midrange fullness.

@jackd thanks

@steve59 thx

Is the Haydn as warm as JMR or P3 ?

@lanx0003 Sorry I should have just said richer, fuller. More bass would be nice though and probably that is possible over the SCM7s given they are sealed. I imagine a ported speaker of similar size would possibly have more bass spl and then I could use the nearfields without my subs turned on (but this is not a requirement at all).

@lonemountain Latest, v3.

 Thanks Brad. Ya I don't think the ATCs are bright, they are fairly neutral its just that I am looking for a warmer speaker (warmer than neutral). Like I am really loving the tone and sound of my Black silk HD650s.. I want the speaker version of that.

Ya I am craving lots of warmth right now so I am not worried about 'too warm' with my pass labs @bassdude . I think the 30.1 or 30.2 might be too big for my application though which is at a desk, about 3-4 feet away.

Ya right now my main pics would be P3ESR XD or JMR Folia jubilee

@jackd Not sure if he has a show room. He operates out of his house. And wont know how it sounds with my equipment .

@sliffy I would still need my amp and pre for my ns5000 I also use for mid field listening.

@mijostyn This is for a desk setup.

@kaitainen Have you heard the Harbeth P3ESR or any JMR speakers? Thanks.

@jackd The dealer offered me a Fyne f500 and said it was brighter but a better speaker than the JMR Folia. I don't think ill go for it but just a datapoint to observe.

 @jackd  I emailed JMR to ask if their silk in their tweeter is synthetic or natural since i dont buy natural silk for ethical reasons. This was a solid 2 weeks ago I think and still no response.

@ddd1 I got the speakers up on metal stands but they are on the desk. Since I am pretty much against a wall the only way to get them off would be some kind of wall mount which I'd prefer not to do. Eventually when I move ill do this properly more like a mixing desk/studio.
