Tannoy or Volti

Couldn't agree more with @whiteknee 

I am a proud owner of a pair of Razz that I had Greg add some custom veneer and grill cloth. If one is interested in the journey of auditioning speakers, then a conversation and trip to meet Greg and have a listen is completely worth it. (He also happens to be a great guy to hang out with, listening to great music and eating killer Mexican food). 

For me My Volti check all the boxes, and they are hand built in the US. 

I have always been a fan of Tannoy, I've owned a couple different pair. I was also very impressed with all of the Fyne speakers I've heard at various shows. Still for me there's no moving away from Volti at this point. 

There precious few Klipsch speakers that I would consider very good (maybe none). Klipsch was designed in a time long ago when Amps had no power and the only criteria was loudness. Not much has changed with their designs because the purists demand nostalgia. Volti is a better speaker in every measurable way from driver quality to cabinet construction, etc. If you like Horns, the Volti is a good choice and you can call the designer up on the phone and have a conversation with him! That in and of itself is gold in my book. No offense intended to the Klipsch faithful, I just think there are much better speakers for the money. 

It looks like, based on you Amps you have, a Volti may be your ultimate choice but you would need to audition it. The XA-25 can drive maggies at reasonable levels.

Thanks Everyone, great suggestions….

I haven’t heard either of the two models you mention @charles007100 . I do have a pair of Devore Fidelity O Baby’s that I love. For your budget you could look up some of the higher end models. And if you are willing to look outside of the US I also have a pair of Qualio IQs from Qualio Audio, Poland. Semi open baffle. Excellent sound. Between the two, the Devores are my favourite.
