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!

I have the same room and used the KEF LS50 Meta and KC62 sub to excellent results. I replaced the speakers with Magnepan LRS+. I needed some very powerful amps to run the LRS+ (unlike the LS50 Meta). I use a Sanders Magtech or a CODA #16 for the LRS+.

The LRS+ works great in this small room and it is better then the LS50 Meta. The soundstages is bigger, more depth and wider.

However, since the OP has a piano also in this room I cannot recommend the LRS+. I would go with the LS50 Meta

 

Actually, since the piano stays, you would be better off getting a RAAL SR1b earphone and the TL-1B interface box to use with your existing amp. It is better than the LRS+ and the LS50 Meta. However, it is not room speakers.
