New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid

Out of those three the Boressen x 3 is the best one you should also consider the monitor audio platinum series which I believe is even better than the Boressen.

The problem with beryllium is is very bright and hard sounding I've listened to the paradigm and I couldn't sit there for more than 2 minutes The voice and symbols were very bright and edgy sounding The monitor audio platinum are much better.

Fear...surprise...and an almost fanatical devotion to B&W.

No surprise, actually. There’s a reason (or many reasons) that B&W have been the standard monitors for DGG and a host of other premiere recording labels for decades. The 801s are going to be hard to beat. But then, as has been said already, taste in speakers is highly personal.

FWIW (which won’t be much), I have never found a speaker I prefer to my Scientific Fidelity Teslas, built in 1992 and restored twice since by Millersound. I’ve had B&Ws in my listening room for a week; own Von Schweikert VR4 Jrs, PSB Synchrony Ones, Revel F208s, a pair of Maggies.... I’ve also auditioned various others, again in my own space. A friend writes reviews for Stereophile, and I’ve heard some amazing things at his place (Vivid Giyas; MBL Radialstrahlers). But I always come back to the Teslas.

Your rig must sound superb. Maybe its time to return to the music; that’s what the tools are for.

I’d keep your current speakers and get another pair that are really different but can be driven by your current amps. If you listen to a lot of acoustic music and jazz, Maggie’s might be interesting. Then you can swap ever once in a while to scratch the itch for something different.

I haven't heard an american-made speaker yet that I like not legacy not Wilson not any the European speakers are much better like monitor audio proac audio vector and Boressen.
