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

With your preferences I would avoid the Clayton Shaw Caladans. They are rather hot in the presence region (upper mid to lower treble).

Fyne F1-8 are a standmount speaker with an adjustable presence control. You might find they meet your needs. Very expensive new, but I know where you can get a beautiful used pair within your budget.

Also, the QLN suggestion someone else made is a good one if you can find them used.
