Standmount speaker suggestion
HI
I have B&W 705 s3 Signature speakers paired with a Pass Labs INT-60. While imaging and soundstage are great, I find the speakers a bit bright. What should I try next, and what would be worthy of being mated to the Pass integrated? I will buy used but keeping in line with the value of the amp, the budget is around $5000- $8000 new.
I realize speakers are very subjective. Just want some direction to go.
Appreciate it.
Absolute best sound speaker - Wavetouch audio Antero speaker. Compare Antero sound to Magico A-1, Focal Sopra No. 1, TAD Me1 below Alex/Wavetouch audio Antero https://youtu.be/LlYlIvmmg3c?si=EB_m8Mi5PRDD2vcJ&t=152 Magico - Jay’s voice is perfectly natural. So, this is honest A1 sound. https://youtu.be/iLQMNJi8JAs?si=7V-pIRiieDqu1_1B Focal - People’s voice sound great in recording. So, this is real Sopra sound. https://www.youtube.com/live/Msaq4kCYclw?si=lJMZFA1mufR9DUxM&t=830 TAD - Accuphase + DCS. |
There is a dealer listing here for a mint pair of Harbeth Super Hl5 XDs for $4250.00. I own those and I doubt you would go wrong with them. BTW, the dealer is also selling matching TonTrager stands. Review! https://www.stereophile.com/content/harbeth-super-hl5plus-xd-loudspeaker |
