pesky_wabbit has it right. https://www.theabsolutesound.com/articles/atc-scm50-aslt-loudspeaker Yup, that'll get it. 112db |
JBL S3900s or JBL 4367 and a pair of SVS SB or PB 16 Ultra Subwooofers. Alternatively, the pair of REL No. 31 or 32. Any combination would absolutely do the trick in a 5500 FT3 or 150 M3 room. No direct driver loudspeaker will have the output or directivity control required to successfully fill that room. JBL, SVS, and REL are also likely to have distribution in Thailand. Personally, ivastly prfer thr new JBLs over anything from Klipsch. Succcess with a room that size requires controlled directivity, and that means horns, or possibly a line array. Although the Magneplanar 20.7 with the aforementioned subwoofers and adequate power could be extraordinary - if the room is well treated acoustically. Direct radiators rarely sound their best in rooms over 70 or so M3 (or2600 ft3) - about half the size of your room. Their conventional cone/dome speakers simply cannot move enough air to generate the levels required, and their broad dispersion means lots of early reflections which will rapidly deteriorate into a muddy sounding mess. |
