Speaker thoughts - ProAc D40R or Wilson Benesch


.....if we could put aside equipment etc, I would like thoughts on the ProAc D40r's and the Wilson Benesch Square 3's in a room that is about 13' across , 21' deep and 7' ceilngs and the speakers are on the short wall.
Musical taste is anyhting from CSNY, Delta and Chicago Blues, The Allman Brothers, Bocelli ......and all kinds of jazz.....some some thoughts on what people have heard and liked......thank you and Happy Holidays

Are you in the US? Arizona HiFi is the only US store that may have a pair. Soundstage Fine Audio in Canada has a used pair listed. Probably not going to get a new pair directly from Proac. Consider a K6 or Carbon Pro 6/8? You may be able to find a dealer in the UK with D40's in inventory and willing to ship. The D40R's were a high water mark in the Response 3, 3 Signature, 3.5, 3.8, D38 run. I had the 3.5's for about 8 years and loved them. The D40's are in an entirely different category of performance. You can drive them with literally anything of high quality. I'm currently using the VAC 160i. Not that Goldman you referred to.
Thank you gentleman ......you have to love this hobby as nothing will sound the same when you put in your own room and use your own equipment.
Although I am thrilled with the D40R's, I think you should consider a used pair of Carbon Pro 8's. There are two pairs for sale right now for only a few thousand more than a new pair of D40R's. If you have the space, the CP8's should be spectacular with the two 8" bass drivers and the famous 3" ATC midrange.
