Speaker upgrade


Good morning all, hope everyone is well.

My planned HIFI change for 2023 is a change in loudspeakers. My top contenders are JBL L100, Klipsch Forte IV or Corwall IV’s, another couple I am very interested in are the Volit Razz, and possibly the Paradigm F80.

System consists of Rogue RP-1, Rogue Atlas Mag III, Line Magnetic CD-24, MOFI Master deck and Master tracker.

Room is an untreated living room 15x15, hardwood with thick throw rug and lightly furnished.

I have listened to the Klipsch and the Paradigm, enjoyed them both. They are different animals as one would imagine.

I listen to mostly Jazz, Rock and "American Roots" (not modern country).

Thoughts and suggestions appreciated.

I would listen some more. I am sure your listening was analytical oriented… trying to identify differences. This is how most people do it.

I recommend going back in and just listen to the music for the sake of music. Try not to be analytical. Find the speakers that move you emotionally, that make you want to listen to more music. These may not be the ones where you can clearly hear the musician move his foot… or you get the slightly greater slap in the face with bass.

Might also try B&W and Sonus Faber.
