Speaker questions ProAc, Harbeth, ATC
Would like the forum's view on a potential speaker upgrade. I listen to ProAc Response 2.5 speakers which I purchased nearly 30 years ago. They have been wonderful. I also have a REL T9x subwoofer. Since the speakers are so old, I have been thinking of looking to upgrade. The options I have on my list are new ProAcs, ATC and Harbeth. I would be prepared to buy used. I am looking for a similar sound to the ProAcs but maybe with a firmer bass. I listen at reasonable levels and my tastes are classic rock and jazz. I find the ProAcs are great with jazz. My room is not dedicated to sound only and is 15 ft x 20 ft. Thank you for suggestions.
I have owned a lot of different Proac speakers including the 2.5 which you now own. I upgraded to the D-40r which I still own. The newer Proac speakers are an improvement, especially in the treble. I owned Harbeth Compact 7 (I forget which version) and like @larsman I can assure you they don't rock. I have not heard the ATC line except at shows so no opinion to share |
