I have a pair of JBL L100 Classics and also have a pair of Kef R3s and both are spec'd to go down to 40hz however the bass is much more ever-present with certainly more heft and presence with the JBL's. They are very different sounding speakers and both excel in different ways but I like the JBL's more overall. People say the JBL's are a fun and entertaining speaker and I wholeheartedly agree.
Need more heft
In the market for floor standing full range speakers. Would appreciate recommendations up to $4K.
Current rig:
VPI Scout TT
Lyra Delos MCPass Labs XP12 pre
Pass Labs XP17 phono pre
Pass Labs XA25 ampZU Audio Soul MK 2 Speakers
ZU cable
Love the mid range and immediacy of the speakers but they have no heft or bottom end/bass extension which is what I am seeking. Not interested in adding a sub.
For reference, I’ve researched ZU Omen Def MK2, Kef, Focal, Klipsch Forte 3 and Heresy 4, JBL L100 and Golden Ear.
Appreciate your feedback in advance.
