Where do you have the speakers positioned currently, and what don’t you like?
Speakers for weird sized room.....
So, I've recently gotten a dedicated listening room that is 9 feet wide, by 19 feet long, and am looking for a pair of speakers that may match well with this room size. I currently have some PMC fact 8, and want to move to something better. I have not tried anything in this room yet. I have around 10 to 12k usd to play with.
Thanks!!

So, I went back and read Kal Rubinson’s Stereophile review of your speakers and his impressions as well as John Atkinson’s measurements are both inline with what you’re hearing — that being a lack of energy/warmth from the upper bass and lower mids so I think replacing the speakers is a good idea. Also, having to place the speakers only 1 foot from the wall to augment bass is no doubt why you find their 3D soundstage lacking. Here’s a beautiful pair of Usher speakers very nicely priced and should be a significant step up in virtually every way. They’re on the larger side but as long as you have the flexibility to pull them out from the back wall and a foot or so from the side walls with a bit of toe in they should be fine. Here are a couple smaller options that would also be excellent choices although likely with a little less treble energy than your PMCs project. https://www.audiogon.com/listings/lisb86de-verity-audio-otello-full-range Just some thoughts/ideas to ponder FWIW, and best of luck in your search. |
