CR1s are at the top on my list but the first demo model arrives on October! I will probably have to make an educated guess. I am not also sure whether Lamm M1.2 will drive them properly. |

I have never auditioned Focal speakers. Just heard them play very loudly with Vitus amps last year at the Munich show. |

Thimios...good luck with the speaker search and you have a lovely room. You cannot go wrong with any of the speakers you are considering. As always, listening to them with your equipment in your room is the best way to go, if you can manage to do that. Good luck and look forward to following your system's evolution

If I had a space that large and the budget I'd demo some MBL 101E's or maybe some Tannoy Westminster Royal SE's. Also the Wilson Maxx 3, oh man my head is swimming with possibilities...................

Don...I think the pics make it look bigger than it is. Dimensions in feet are 13' x 23' x 8'. It's a long rectangle basically with an extra 3 ft of width where the stairs come up into the room and towards the back of the room. I thoughts of the Maxx 3s but i think the Sashas would have no problems pressurizing that size room.

I am trying out now the CR1s for the last couple of days. Will post more later, but they are very good. I like them better than the W. Max actually... Tonally are much more accurate.

A pair of Sonus Faber Stradivari or Amati Futura will look awesome in that lovely space of yours.

I would also propose Amati Futura speakers and Aerial VT20 or new Joseph Audio Pearl 3.
I've heard many speakers and found some that underestimated from reviewers -due to other business reasons- might offer greater value and performance. For example Joseph audio reference line speakers always showing with modest gear and despite that you get the most open sound from conventional type of speaker and a naturalness in timbres unlike any other mechanical contenders. Aerial speakers also fit that rule. On the other hand you are getting more value and true full range performance with the above speakers and do not compromise to 50hz low region of Raidho or little lower of Q1. Just food for thought Thimios and enjoy your speaker hunt. The ride is hillarious |
