Speakers for triode tube amps
Dump the no floorstanders parameter & look at the Living Voice dynamic speakers..IF you really must have stand mounts how about the Exotic Monitor from Salk Sound? 
Desktop single-driver speakers?
^^^ Interesting little system,looking forward to your comments on performance..If you like what you hear & look to move up I HIGHLY recommend the tiny size,HUGE sounding Audience Clairaudient 1+1..Simply blown away by the performance of these ... 
Critical listening and altered states
This all boils down to 1 thing,FEELING. I doubt there are even a handful of Agone members who do not listen to music to feel,to experience transcending their normal existence.Some humans need or desire the directional shift their brain takes when ... 
High End Headphones And HP Amp.
For the life of me I can NOT understand WTH listeners are hearing with Focal.I demo’d Clear & Utopia,like sticking my head in an aluminum can & listening.ABSOLUTELY no natural,organic warmth,NO SOUL!NOTHING but a cold,lifeless,mechanical p...

Tri-Art Class D

Living audio set-up
I read somewhere the owner/designer/builder of Harbeth LOVES Hegel & uses them exclusively to demo his speakers..I would imagine the combination would be highly musical,tonally colorful & easily enjoyable..Don't forget decent stands & ... 
Living audio set-up
Small will work if you compact your listening area,ie:set up system on the short wall & sit a little closer.I would also at least throw a rug down & curtains over the closest windows.. 
Living audio set-up
^^^ IMO they might come off as a bit bass shy,smallish cabinet & drivers..I heard the Lumina V recently driven by a Creek EVO50 & I have to say they have the wonderful,rich yet detailed sound SF has always had a reputation for... 
Living audio set-up
Pretty good size room & hard.IMO a good floorstanding 3 way is the way to go here + they would be a bit more efficient,making better use of power.In your room I would absolutely not get anything that has a tendency to be brighter sounding like... 
Amp Recommendation for new JBL L100 Classic
