Question Speaker suggestions?

[Omar Gudnason]

Hello HiFi community.

I'm looking for help with choosing the right speakers. I know that this not ideal for superb sound quality and some of you probably will start itching just thinking about putting speakers inside this cabinet. This solid wooden cabinet with a marble plate on top, is very solid and heavy. The "grill" on the doors is high quality speaker grill material. The sizes of the space for the speakers on both sides is (HxWxD) 70x38x43 (27"x15"17").

Any recommendations regarding what type of speakers will be most suitable for this situation, will be highly appreciated. What would you buy and why?

Price range is somewhere up to 4000 USD approx!

I have the Yamaha RN-1000A Amplifier and Technics SL1200 Mk2 Turntable.

Hope to hear from some you soon!

Love the look of your cabinet and set up. Sometimes it’s just not practical to have a ‘perfect’ Hifi placement, for whatever reason. Who cares.

You’ll get plenty advise on speakers and ‘alternative’ ways of placing them 😀

Perhaps some idea as to your budget might help......
Obviously they would need to be some type of standmounts but they aren't going to sound their best that low down.

That's a good point ... I'm willing to spend somewhere up to 4000 USD on speakers. I'm aware of my limitations inside these doors, but that's my reality! 🙂

Any info/help would be great!!!

Much cheaper, some of the Klipsch standmounts, like the RP 600M mk2 would fit in there.
No point on spending more on speakers that cannot be placed ideally I suggest.
There are more expensive speakers designed to actually work on bookshelves but they need height.
