Speaker for 11x12 room


Hi guys !

Im in process of building my stereo room there is a sketch of my room

My budget is somewhere around 2.5k Usd

there will be a piano in the 8.53 wall.

what do you think will work the best for me and where is the best placement.

I don’t listen in high volumes. Don’t have measurements for db atm.

my Amplifier is ARC75se .

im considering either floorstands or monitors leaning towards monitors unless I can get a really interesting deal that still will work in this room with floor stand.

 

thank your for your help!

@OP, the best placement is what you propose - speakers firing down the room towards the wall where you propose to have the piano. You will still benefit from a curtain on the glass door. You will get some reflections off the piano so it it can go in another room, it would be better. Also, it will allow you to get your chair away from the wall.  And ideally, some acoustic treatment behind you listening seat would be beneficial.

There's a wide variety of speakers that will work in that space so you are not necessarily restricted to standmounts - though you do want a speaker that has good control in the bass and that will work relatively close to the wall. That said, the Harbeths and Kef LS 50s are good suggestions that will definitely work well in the room.
