Im also (like someone in here) looking for different speakers
I have argon alto 5 mkII part of dali and hifiklubben in denmark and the bf offer i had to buy and try Q acoustics 3010i
Argon hasn't got to much bass despite 5.25" woofer but has more clarity in the highs and higher power handling than the q acoustics
HOW ever the q acoustics has somehow more bass and less highs, more comfortable to listen not just because of how the highs sound but also because of the level from the highs that are very different than the 3000, it had mids and high in your face, much more sharp and listen to me, listening fatigue + less bass than the 3000i series made the 3020 sound bright and thin.
The highs on the argons are more livelier but not fatigue to listen to, it's lacking a little in the bass but can play fairly loud
The highs on the q acoustics are not fatigue at all, at a level you don't notice the highs as much as the argons but it lack some clarity in the higher frequencys from the upper midrange,lower tweeter and up, excatly that makes it easy to play loud since the mids and highs are very comfortable at high levels.
I miss more bass and less highs (more comfortable) from the argons and more clarity from the q acoustics without any change in how comnfortable the highs are
For me eq is not an option i would like to use
Another thing is both might not be detail focused speakers so more detail i wouldn't mind, both speakers are loud enough for my needs
Im going for bookshelf speakers on a fairly low budget of 300-400 euros, so fare i can return the q acosutics and sell the argons, i just can't depend on that if i see a good offer new or used, so my budget is no more than 300-400 euros unless im willing to take a loan with no interest rates or any extra (which is possible but im not a fan of the speakers they sell at that place where i can get it).
