Sonus Faber Grand Pianos Or Audio Physic Virgos


Any opinions on which speaker is better for rock and classical music or suggestions on a speaker with a fuller range for the 3K-5K US dollar price range would be greatly appreciated. Any recommendations to components which complement these speakers would also be helpful. Particularly a SACD player with regular CD playing capabilities around $500.

Thanks

You've got lots of choices in the $3-6k price range for speakers. The Virgos(haven't heard new version yet) and GPs are certainly great speakers, but others in that range would probably do better on the low end might be the Gershmann Avant Garde RX20, Coincident Technology Super Eclipse, Soliloquy 6.3, Talon Peregrine, and Silverline Sonata II. All are excellent speakers(as are the Virgos and the GPs), and personal preference more than anything would likely determine the winner and fairly easily as they're all very different. If you're looking to do a CD/SACD player that cheap I'd buy one and get it modified by Stan Warren/Dan Wright/Ric Schultz so it does justice to your speakers(and the rest of your system). Best of luck.
