| Warm, Lush Laid-Back Smaller Floor Standers? https://www.audioholics.com/tower-speaker-reviews/philharmonic-bmr I own a pair of BMR Philharmonitors, as well as some big boys (JBL 4350 & DD 67000), and Dynaudio Heritage Specials, so I have some common experience. I was looking for som... | |
| Full range speakers, 40"-44" max height BMR Towers. 43" high, phenomenal performance at $4000. Or JBL Project Array 1400s, if you can find them. They’re gonna be 6-8 thousand bucks if you can. Not many people turn loose of them. They’re about 45" high. Best imaging I’ve experienced. St... | |
| How do you stop house guest from damaging your speakers? +1 for Uncledemp I'm happy for anyone to come in and listen, choose what to play, etc. But I do ease a little bit closer so I can intervene if anyone starts to reach for anything. Especially the little kids. Every room has at least one complet... | |
| Really Inexpensive Systems That Sounded Great? For work, we spend one or two nights a week at another place outside of Dallas. It’s an old frame farmhouse that we remodeled/rebuilt. It’s mostly just to have a place to eat supper, relax and sleep, then leave for work at sunrise. Rooms are sm... | |
| Really Inexpensive Systems That Sounded Great? We have so many systems that they’re doubled up in several rooms. Best bang for the buck is Dynaco ST70, PAT5, BMR Philharmonitors. Under $2000 for entire system. Second contender is Luxman 5C50 pre, Elekit TU8600S, and Heathkit AS-101 speakers... | |
| Speakers with deep/powerful bass JBL 4350 will casually handle anything you feed them. I have a pair of them in our large living room, along with a pair of JBL Everest DD67000 on the adjacent wall. Playing a Simon Preston recording of Bach organ concerti, cranked up they shake pl... | |
| Speakers with deep/powerful bass JBL 4350 and Everest DD67000. We have a pair of each in our living room, on adjacent walls. This thread has given me a few new tracks to check out. | |

| After fifty years… amazing. What high end audio can be. “I wonder if we are the last of a generation that grew up with hi-fi and made it an important part of our lives-- “ Yup, you’re right. But part of the reason is that they haven’t had the opportunity to hear what’s possible, what big ol’ boxes... | |
| After fifty years… amazing. What high end audio can be. 75 here, with 60 years of the chase behind me. Still have the first Heathkit I built, the first decent turntable and speakers that I bought. It’s all been wonderful, and still going. We have about a dozen pairs of speakers inside and outside of th... | |
| Advice for bookshelf speakers JBL L110 is a fine, well-balanced speaker, a real sleeper - sometimes available for just a few hundred bat skins. I keep at least one pair around for temporary use (trailer trip, special occasion at kids house…). | |
| Advice for bookshelf speakers Ascend Acoustics Sierra 2 EX. Absolutely wonderful and the EX version has solid bottom end. Even better is the BMR Philharmonitors, but size may disqualify them. They’re even better than the Sierras, and that’s saying a LOT. If you can afford the... | |

| Considering Towers in the $3000 range +1 for the Ascend Acoustics Sierra Tower speakers. I’ve been using the bookshelf version Sierra 2 EX, and they are hard to beat, expecially for the price, but the towers take it to another level. Not quite up to the Revel Salon 2 speakers in my fa... | |
