I have recently upgraded my main system with some Roksan Caspian M2's (very nice) and some Focal Aria 905 speakers.
I'd like to move the 905's to my upstairs system 2, and invest in some new/secondhand bookshelf speakers to get the best from the Roksan's.
I want a full rich meaty sound with good midrange for vocals, piano,guitar, violins etc rather than a thin bright sound with aggressive treble or deep bass - ie more 'heart'. I dislike a wall of percussion and drums between me and the lead music ! Room is about 15 sq.m.
My budget is up to £1k new but i may go higher for the right speaker, which might equate secondhand to something with an original RRP of c£2k
Focal Aria 906 is on my shortlist (I like the 905's but would like more heart), and I ought to check out the Kef LS50. Anything else to look at ? I've heard ATC's are a bit lean, what about PMC's ?
I may also consider retro or specialist speakers.
Thanks Guys
