High end bookshelf speakers for Small room
Hey, saurabhgarg... Best to assume you will require room tuning for maximum performance.  A smaller room can be a blessing, especially if it is a dedicated room for music.  A highly experienced close friend is having a wonderful time with his Dyn... 
Where Do I Go from Here?
Nicely curated system, jmeyers, grats! Of similar age, I relate to audio restlessness, especially linked with great passion for our hobby.  For me, it does NOT indicate we are not fully enjoying our systems, rather, it's again time to move closer...

Hi 12many & thanks for the topic... This was my first listen to Krall's "Temptation."  It serves as a reminder to revisit Diane's catalog.  Sometimes, I find it necessary to let an artist simmer on the back burner over time, even decades.  Th...
