New speakers for 15*12 room powered by Lamm 1.2s?


 Attending the Seattle show this week. Thinking about upgrading my Thiel 7.2 speakers which I have owned for over 15 years.  I have a dedicated room. My Thiel's are powered by Lamm 1.2s direct from a PS Audio Directream DAC Mk1.  I am separately looking at upgrading the digital sources and potentially adding real to reel to my system.  Through room treatments and upgrading the Tubes in my Lamm's  I have been able to get a lot of the brightness out of my Thiels but I am still looking for more warmth and definition. I listed to a lot of female vocalist music, acoustic/electric guitar.  I am told the Borreson X3, X6 are an incredible value.  Any  recommendations to consider? Thx

kef ref 3 or blade 2s will work well in that sized room with the lamms

Check out a Wilson Dealer. With trading in your Theils you should be able to get a pair of certified Sasha DAWS for less than 25K. The dealer will setup the Sashas and take the Thiels away.

I think your Thiel’s are one of the better speakers out there, despite their age.

And, given your speakers are time/phase aligned, Vandersteen would be my first recommendation.

Really, if you are thinking of choosing a different speaker, I believe it is you best interests to try to arrange listening time with as many dealers as you can. Some might be able to arrange for loaners. Of course, not everyone lives near a major city, which makes doing that difficult. But, if you can make some time to take a road trip, it would be to your benefit, considering that you are going to be spending a considerable sum of money.
