Speakers for leading edge, transients, speed and big sound
Hello- I am looking to spend about 20-30k on used speakers ( guessing they would have been -40K new a few years back). Any suggestions welcome. I have a 14*20 room and I am looking for dynamics, potentially a great sounding horn or equivalent. Excited by Tektons but since I have the budget wondering if there's anything better. I did have the JBL M2s that I really enjoyed and Revel Salon 2s that I didn't so much
Thank you!

Rockport speakers have outstanding transient response. There is a pair of Rockport Technologies Cygnus for sale on Audiogon - this is a $65k speaker on sale for $36.5k. i have the Atria IIs, two levels down from the Cygnus, they are totally transparent and have an ability to retain resolution over an amazing dynamic range. They will happily play at any level your hearing could stand and at the end of a piano piece you can hear when the dampers touch the strings. If you Google - Rockport speakers transients - you will get a good description of the sound. The Cygnus and Atria models use the same mids and tweeters, the Cygnus has beefier woofers. As you move up the range the cabinets become even more advanced. |
You could pick up a beautiful Volti Rival in custom veneer of your choice brand spanking new within your budget. All the dynamics, speed, accuracy and room filling sound you can want. Plus you don’t need heroic amplifiers to do so as they are super efficient. Just check out Volti website, a multitude of veneer and grill cloth options. |
