I have a Hegel H90 int. amp. and considering now which speakers to buy.
I have listened to a lot of speakers recently (Dali Opticon 6, B&W 704 & 705 S2, Audiovector QR3, MA Silver 200+300, KEF R3 & R7, Piega Classic 5.0 and XTZ 99.36 FLR) but all without subwoofer.
I will probably buy a subwoofer anyway later on so my question is whether a good bookshelf like the R3 or R300 would be a better deal than buying the larger floorstanding models.
The previous R series are extremely cheap now compared to the new R-series (R300 €700 per set vs. €1500 per set for the R3) so I am wondering whether the new R-series is worth that price difference. I haven't been able to compare them A/B. I heard that the old R-series can be a bit too clean and miss some excitement /warmth. I found the new MA Silver's a bit too boring and clean so if the KEF's are even more bright then I don't think I will like them.
