I would add Vienna to the list. Probably not the best choice for rock though.
modest towers with high WAF for living room?
Looking for opinions on this one. I've been running with Paradigm Studio-20s (V5) for over a year and want to upgrade. This is for our living room, 100% 2ch music. The Studios have been a nice intro into quality speakers. Now, I'm looking for something with a bit more bass presence plus, I want to get away from speaker stands.
My living room is large, 14X24', but we tend to listen at low-mid levels ... jazz, blues, classical, folk, some rock. I don't blast or need "wall thumpers".
I really want these to be nice, attractive, to get buy-in from the wife! ; )
Budget? Well < $2K preferrably, $2500 max.
My priorities: high WAF, sonic upgrade from the Studio20s, modest size ... don't want them to dominate the room.
Some candidate
