Any normal size speakers that sound like Volti
I think they fit the space nicely.    
Have you found your "End-Game" speakers yet? I have. And it feels so good!!!
@steve59 I had some Ushers a couple down the line from yours. I forgot those. LOL Do you still have the Blades?  I feel some comfort that I'm not alone but the room is always going to set the limit on the sound. I need to understand that. I have a...

It's really not about the speakers but the sickness. I've had multiple speakers that should have been endgame. Goldenear Triton Ref. Dynaudio Evidence Temptations. Dynaudio C1 Signature. Monitor Audio 300 Platinum. Legacy Aeris. Any right minded h... 
Phono preamp, all suggestions welcome
There is a Musical Fidelity phono that is great. It has MM and MC. Only $200-$300 used. Small box.  
Not selling Cardas cables online again, just wanted to share.....
It hurts us all. I wouldn't buy anything remotely expensive Friends and Family so that definitely hurts commerce. I try to buy local too.    
Dealers with excellent listening rooms?
The Sound Advantage in Rochester Mi. does a nice job. One thing I find odd is that most audiophile types claim vinyl is so much better but high end dealers rarely show their systems by playing a record.  
Share your experience of Mon Acoustic Speakers Here
I loved the sound I heard at AXPONA. Price is a bit higher than my comfort zone.  
ISO - grit, texture, decay, life from snares and bass drums
Would a couple subwoofers help? My Magnepan LRS+ has the issue of the changing sound when standing. Interested in comments.  
Have you asked yourself this question?
I do all formats but could easily live with just streaming. I have moments where I want to streamline and then moments where I like the accumulation of the physical media. I'm not as adamant as some on their belief that record playing is superior ... 
From pass xa25 to krell k-300i
@rfprice I would agree. I've never heard a bad word about either amp.    
Big speakers, are they really the best way to get great sound?
@daveyf  Great post. I thought it was just me. I have enjoyed some big rooms at AXPONA but doubt that it translates to my space. My tendency when I buy is to want the top of the particular line. I need to change that attitude.   
From pass xa25 to krell k-300i
@rfprice If cash isn't a huge concern I would buy the Pass and have a shootout. Both those amps are good sellers when you make a decision. I'm a preamp fan so the dac to amp option is the X factor.  
Should I graduate to floor standers or will larger bookshelves suffice?
It’s possible that the suggestion of being closer to the speakers is correct. You own good speakers. I’m not sure location of your listening position isn’t the problem. Putting different speakers in the same spot might not fix the problem.  
speakers for small room
I think you should move into a small floor stand speaker. Not sure why all the stand mount suggestions. You want a bigger sound, right?  
Does streaming music equate to high concert ticket prices
@larsman The artist sets the 'guarantee' that is required to have them perform. As far as I'm concerned that's the first domino in how much the ticket costs. Beer, hot dogs and pretzels.... same thing. They are ALL making money but the price of th...
