Big speakers in small room at moderate volume levels
There is also a RP-1 Lyngdorf unit, which is a preamp with DSP, EQ curves and crossover. No amp. No DA. I use it a lot. You may find one used for a little more than 1K. No manual dsp setting though. Or have a look at the more expensive DEQX. I als... 
Speakers with the most detailed midrange? (non-ESL/planar)
Why not some (new?) music to crank up your systems:Lukas Nelson @ Promise of the Realyes, son of Willie..ATC EL150A...wow! 
Speakers with the most detailed midrange? (non-ESL/planar)
@shadorne Would like to upgrade to the new tweeter for the 150's. Have a version of it in the new ATC 12 and like it a lot (desk top system). Though of course not listening at the same SPL.... The Excel tweeter you are talking about is that the SE...

@woofer72 nice to find your comments. We seem to be on the same path. Wanting as much details as possible, but still a balanced and enjoyable sound - also sometimes at a very high listening volume. As far as I know of today ATC is the benchmark fo...

A little late - but need to put a vote forLukas Nelson & Promise of the real. 
Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other???
I use the XTZ edge to drive my big Tannoys. Fine dynamic sound a little on the warm side. Low low cost. Good power. Gain control. Small size. No problems. Like an amp should be - let's you concentrate on source and speakers.

If I were you I'd pair my new Lyngdorf  3400 with a big ATC or beautiful Tannoy. You will never never have a look at a LS50 again. Good Luck :-)

Have ATC150 asl and Tannoy DC10a for main systems. Sometimes changing the DC10a for Gamut L3, Lipinski L707s or Westlake BBSM10. All of them using the ATC woofers for the low bass (Lyngdorf crossover). Having a good time? Can confess that the Lipi...

It may have been said in earlier posts but Lyngdorf 3400 in addition to automatic correction and eq curves also has manual dsp correction. So you are actually able to get whatever sound you like. If you want subs to do the low parts the crossover ...

Although I’m at the moment an ATC listener, PMC should not be forgotten. Their Fact serie speakers are very detailed and you can have them in all price categories. Naturally, as for ATC, also their big pro series. For ATC maybe the 20s are the bes... 
Genelec SAM active studio monitors for home use
Please note that my first impression of the Genelecs 8331 was a quick one, not in my room and not set up by me. So if you are interested in these don't let my words scare you away. But I do mean that the 8341s is probably the one's you should try ... 
Genelec SAM active studio monitors for home use
Should also say that the imaging and 3d soundstage was stellar. Could not wish for better. And certainly the bass should be able to get more precise in your room with manual dsp corrections. Just felt they didn't give me anything more than what I ... 
Audiogon member suggestions for a speaker that sounds good at low volume!!!
Much prefer near-field lower level listening to headphones. For the imaging and soundstage. A very nice experience. Besides headphones hurt and you crank the volume too high. Maybe listen 5 hours a day to my desk top system and half an hour to my ...
