Looking for speaker ideas.


Looking for speaker ideas and room size is 11 w x 16 l x 9 ft ceilings.....room has acoustical panels. Music ranges from Big Band , Blues, Rock.

Equipment so far is :

Wyred 4 Sound st-500
deHavilland Mercury Preamp
Sim audio phono pre
VPI Industries HW-19 mkIII GLOSS BLACK W/MOERCH UP-4 / Ortofon Black

Have looked at different Spendor , Proac, Totem speakers but not sure if those would work for the rock music and would a sub be needed with those if they would be able to play rock music ?

Budget is $2000-2500

The market is loving the Golden Ears Triton 3+ or 5 speakers and they are in your price range.  My pal with $9000 Brodmann speakers heard them in a dealer's showroom in San Diego and was blown away.  Sandy Gross is a genius speaker design.  Me, I am loving my Spatial Audio M4 speakers, but I have a REL T7 sub to round out the LF.  The Vandersteen's are legendary... I have never heard a pair that I didn't enjoy.  So many speakers, so little time...

Oh, BTW, I had a pair of Totem Hawks and they have outstanding bass for their size and easy to drive.
