Speakers for electronic/hiphop/rnb [$4000 range]?


Hello everybody,

Let me start off by saying I don’t know much about hifi. I’m trying to educate myself by visiting forums like these and I’m learning some things but most information goes over my head. And most of you listen to classical/rock/jazz so it’s hard to find an opinion that is relevant to me without asking. I currently have a set of Kef ls50’s that I blind bought because of amazing reviews paired with an arcam a19 integrated amplifier and it’s basically the best purchase I’ve ever made. It’s made me appreciate music in a different way and now I would like to upgrade to a new setup in a designated music room with new speakers and new components. The room will be 12x17.

A store near me sells Harbeth speakers but I think I read bass is lacking in these but I may still try to audition them, I’m not really sure what else is well regarded in my price range..

  Hi, I'm currently listening to Aphex Twin on ProAc Studio 148's.  They're very detailed, without being bright or harsh & produce quite a large amount of bass considering their size.  I can say they easily bested all other speakers I've heard/auditioned in my size & budget.  Better yet, they work well without gobs of power.
  If you find you like the Harbeth sound, but want more prodigious bass and a bit more extended treble, I highly recommend them.
