Pure Audio Project Duet 15 Horn 1. Open baffle masterpiece.
Speaker recommendations welcomed
Hi everyone,
Looking for some speaker recommendations for a second system and would love to hear your input. Here's a list of what I'm after
Budget around $5k
Prefer no bookshelf speakers
Non-agressive tweeters
Excellent imaging
I don't have electronics yet and have only started my speaker search. Thanks!!

Your room is pretty massive. I don't think a lot of these recommendations are really going to fill out a room like that. Big room, need big speakers, simple physics In my similarly sized room, I love my tekton double impacts. Yes they have seven tweeters, but mostly they are for the mid range which is blissfully smooth and accurate. The high end is ultra smooth and relaxed. But if you're a bass head at all, you'll want subs with whatever you choose in that large of a room. Unless you get lucky with the gods of nulls and room peaks and wind up with decently even output down to 30 hz. Could also go Tekton Nebo if you want to try the larger array. Both of these speakers are well under your budget and will outperform similarly priced speakers in a larger room typically.

I guess for $5k, this is the best floorstander you could get in terms of value. TAS, in particular, did a fantastic job of describing its sound character. But, you probably need to invest multiple times that amount in electronics to unlock its full potential. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DeL7DvkbHgE https://www.stereophile.com/content/svs-ultra-evolution-pinnacle-loudspeaker-measurements |
I am partial to ATC as I own one. ATC are very precise and presents music as how it was recorded. with the correct power amp. it will sing. as you have stated you want front standers. the ATS scm 40 will do the job. NOW, another option is to go active rather than going separates (since you do not have an amp as of now) consider going active on the atc, If budget is limited, then another speaker i will recommend is the Maggie LRS + and just supplement it with a subwoofer by REL. this combination i used to own and is very satisfying, provided your give it a 1) a large enough room 2) very good amplification,
