Speakers for 2nd System!


Folks, I’m putting together 2nd system in a small room. This room doubles up as home office space.  The dimensions are 12’ D x 11’ W x 8’ H.  

I am open to recommendations for bookshelves or floor standers with a small footprint. I won’t be adding subs due to limited space. High efficiency 96db and above speakers are preferred. 

The system components so far, 

Leben CS600X - 28-32W

Technics SL - 1200M7B with Hana ML

Softone Model 4 Phono

Raysonic CD128 

Cables - Sternklang (ribbon) IC and Speaker with HIJIRI “Nagomi” Power Cords. 

Budget, I would like to stay under $5k but wouldn’t mind going over for something exemplary. Not interested in DIY projects or ugly stuff - aesthetics and high performance are equally important..lol! 

Thank you!

Compact and efficient are pretty much mutually exclusive.  The closest thing that comes to mind would be an offering from Omega:

Your amp has more than enough power for a more typical 90-91dB speaker in that size space which would open up your options considerably.  Unless, you need to listen at 95+dB levels, you should be fine with a more realistically spec'd speaker.
