Must be nice to be able to afford to spend 25k on a speaker.
Floorstanding speaker experiences/recommendations in the $12-25k range
I realize there are thousands of options, but I'm looking for strong personal experiences/recommendations for floor-standing speakers in the $12-25k range. I currently have Dynaudio Heritage Special stand-mounts. They really are a great speaker in many ways, but full-range they are not. There's an obvious missing element to the music in the <45Hz range. I listen to 95% vinyl, 5% CD (I stream off a Bluesound very occasionally to get ideas for albums to purchase). My system is comprised of a Rega P10 with Hana umami red cart, Modwright PH150 reference phono stage, Oppo 205 disk player all into an Octave V80SE integrated amp with super black box.
My current "leaders" for speakers are Qln Prestige 5 and Devore Gibbon X based on what I've heard, but have liked the Wilson Sabrina Xs and have heard great things about the newer Borresen X3s. Any experiences/recommendations welcome.
Cheers!

@soix fyi - Verity Audio has ceased operations, that’s why the pair is priced as it is |
I gravitate towards speaker companies that innovate with R&D, KEF, Vivid, Yamaha. I used to have Revel in this group but had tweeter issues a few times, so I skip them now. Take a look at the Yamaha NS5000 ($10k-$15k) which is packed with uber technology. It is what I have now. Yamaha NS-5000PNST 3-Way Bookshelf Speakers with Stands | Hi-Fi Heaven (hifiheaven.net) |
@metaldetektor I can’t find any info on this on their website or anywhere else. Where did you see it? |
