Tool fan needs help with speakers (and electronics)


Just like the title says. I mainly listen to Progressive Metal, Grunge and Classic Rock.

I'm looking to build a system with an emphasis on speakers. My all in budget is $5K. Will consider used. My listening room is 4,368 cubic feet. 21' (L) x 16' (W) x 13' (H). Tile floor. No acoustic treatments. Not currently interested in vinyl or tube amps.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thx.

I give a nod to NHT’s.
i ran both 2.9 and 3.3 in a room 15x 22 ( not simultaneously).
I preferred the 2.9 actually , they didn’t jut out as far into the room so the soundstage worked better yet still had the bottom in spades even with a 10” woofer.
i squeezed more ELP juice out of those speakers .....
