I've spent the past 6 months searching for just the kind of speakers you're describing. The search culminated with a visit to RMAF last month to compare the finalists in one place. My final choice may surprise you, but it's worth checking into. For me, it came down to the Goldenear Triton 2 and the Spatial Audio M3. I went with the Spatial Audio M3. It has a much more natural sound, has excellent detail and imaging, yet still has the right amount of warmth. And it's half the price of the Triton 2. The Spatials are relative newcomers, but they're won't be obscure very long. The reviews have been outstanding, and the product is unique and special. It's well worth checking out.
Speaker decision $3000-3500...help
I have been around auditioning speakers around the $3000-3500 mark.
I am looking for speakers that are musical, open, dynamic with a hint of warmth!
I listen to Soft Rock, Pop and some House/Dance music.
Mostly multi-track and digitally amplified stuff.
I have auditioned PSB, B&W, GoldenEar and Amphions.
I was most pleased with Amphion Helium 520s, since they are very engaging and natural sounding. Jack of all trades.
If you think there are other speakers for my preferences in the price range of 3000-3500, please guide me, i will audition them as well.
Otherwise i will pull the trigger on the Amphions and will need suggestions for Amplification for them. Budget would be $1500.
Please, any advice either on speakers or amplification would be appreciated.
Thanks.
