New room needs new speakers, I need your help


Hello everyone!

I have a new house and a new acoustically treated room, but it is very small: we are talking roughly 12' by 16'.

I use a pair of Dali Euphonia MS4 and I feel they need a bigger room to shine, the volume I need for them to sound full is just too much for my modest room. I really enjoy accurate timbres and I need a beautiful midrange and midbass, I listen mostly to women vocals and jazz.

I am looking for a pair of speakers that will cost me a maximum of 5K on the used market.

I am very sensitive to fatiguing treble, I don't look for absolute treble clarity, I love an easy listening speaker.

My ideal speaker would be the PMC IB2SE which I auditioned extensively, but sadly it is out of my budget.

 

I am open to your suggestions!

 

Rest of the system is


Sony Ps-X9 turntable on a  Sutherland Phono

Analogue Audio Maestron Anniversary integrated amplifier

Lampizator DAC

Wattson Digital Streamer

Muon Filter

Silent Angel switch

All Luna Mauve Cables

Everything but the amplifier pluggeg in Plixir

@maurice89  You have only listed the width and length of your room.  May I ask what is the height and what have you done in the way of acoustic treatment?  

@grislybutter  What kind of list is this.  SoundLab doesn't even get a mention.  I'm beside myself with indignation!   🤣

@maurice89   I won't make a speaker recommendation but I will suggest you try placing the speakers on the long wall.  When your room dimensions are entered into programs that calculate the best combination of L - W - H, your particular room gets a better rating using the long wall placement.  Just something to consider, IMHO.  Cheers.

@grislybutter  It's so annoying trying to send some basic information to another member, only to have the message blocked by admin.  Let's try this work around. Where there's a will.......
