Gallo Strada or Strada II. These are the most flexible speakers I have ever owned. I would get a gallo sub with them as they rely heavily on integration with a bass box.
Need Help Picking Out Bookshelf Speakers
Moved into a small space where my speakers have to go right on the fireplace mantle. Not ideal but that is what I have to do. 10 inches of depth to work with. Looking only at front ported or non-ported. Have MSB DAC IV+ with Signature Power Base, feeding direct to Sanders Magtech, source is computer digital audio. Listen to wide range of music from jazz, folk, rock, blues, electronica, just about anything but classical. Had Maggies but they have to go due to room issues. My buddy is going to give me his old Klipsch Sub to put in the corner so I will have some base. Budget is less than 4K but not sure anything over 2K is worth it because I feel the sound I will get will be limited by my room situation. Was thinking about the Harbeth p3esr (non-ported). The B&W 686 S2 (front ported) was also recommended to me. The Salk WOW1 or the Salk Silk (both front ported) are also options, although the Silk would stick over by an inch (whatever no biggie). I have never heard any of these. What do you think? Thanks in advance, Ward.
