Thinking of Downsizing


I don’t listen to my system as often as I used to, but don’t want to completely get rid of it. Frankly I could use the funds that the sale would offer and am thinking of replacing some of it with more value priced options. I do enjoy my vinyl collection and would like to keep it and my turntable.

The pieces I’m thinking of replacing are a pair of Bower & Wilkins 805 D3, McIntosh  MA6700 and a REL SHO S5.

I’ve looked at the Marantz PM 8006 amp as a possibility, but would like to pair it with some small footprint bookshelf speakers, at a cost of no more then $1000 a pair.

Any comments or suggestions?

$1k is a pretty low bar. Perhaps something in the more main line range like Klipsh RPM600/2 or JBL's?

Good choice on the LS 50’s. I had originally planned to buy the R3 on their close-out sale but decided to step up to the R3 meta models. Tremendous speakers for the price. I think KEF is really on to something with their Meta material technologies.
