I have a pair of PSB Imagine B's idle since I recently purchased the PSB T2's. They were originally $1089.00 and I will sell them for $500 if you are interested in used bookshelf speakers. PSB is the sister company to NAD and should work great with your NAD 316 bee.
Passive Bookshelf Speaker Selection
Putting together a first set-up for exclusively turntable listening. I have narrowed things down to the Fluance RT-85 and NAD C 316BEE but am getting stuck with passive bookshelf speakers. Originally was set on the Klipsch RP-600ms but am having second thoughts given concerns about the potential fatigue and overbearing brightness; I’m wondering if I should go for another option in the $500 range or stick with the Klipsch, which I can get for under 500. I’m considering the KEF Q150s, PSB Alpha P5s, ELAC Debut 2.0 B6.2s, and B&W 607s. Looking for good dynamics that aren’t overwhelming but also warmth.
Ideally, I’d love to go test any of these out but that’s unfortunately not an option right now.
I listen mostly to rock and indie/alternative, and the room is roughly 13x17 ft.
Should I get the Klipsch or head in a different direction? Any help would be appreciated.
