I've been wanting some new speakers for a while now but haven't really found any I like.
accurate, good highs, imaging, mellow mid bass, good bass-able to handle lots of power, ability to play loud. I listen to a wide variety of music from techno, rock, female POP, jazz and am quite critical of recordings sometimes. Can't sound good if the recording sucks - lots of that out nowadays.
I'd like to get a pretty efficient speaker (91 or above) but always frowned on klipsch. I tried to like them about 10 years ago but that horn seemed like it was going to peel my face off. Lately I've been hearing the horn tweeter is much improved since then and has really smoothed out.
If so - should I be looking at the reference series then and compare them to the Paradigm Studios? I'm used to some 12 year old Polk RT11tl (which still sound fabulous) that would move to rear duty or the pool room (should be cool to play with multi-room). Receiver is denon3802.
Trying to get around to audition some speakers but my list is long right now. Thanks in advance.
