Hello, just looking for some advice for my next system upgrade - very much in exploration/research mode at the moment.
Assume no issue with power - the amplifier will have minimum of 200W/8Ω, and 350W/4Ω.
Looking for a set of floorstanders. I do have a sub, but would prefer to set that quite low at a crossover of 40-60Hz or even not need it at all.
Must be 3 way.
Price would be between £5k-£8k. Obviously I will ensure I do some auditions after lockdown.
I enjoy all kinds of music, but the majority is classical and classical/electronic crossover, the rest very mixed, the speakers should be good for everything ideally.
Current list in order of attractiveness to me from reviews/tests/specs I haven't heard any of them though I have heard/owned lower end models from most:
1. Revel F226Be (7k)
2. Dynaudio Contour 60i (8k)
3. Dali Epicon 6 (8.5k, but 20% discounts available)
4. Focal Kanta No2 (7k)
5. Sonus Faber Sonetto VIII (5.6k)
6. B&W 804 D3 (7k)
Anything obviously missing from the list?
