Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Well...

...I'm not sure of your speaker preferenc.s, but I would listen to everything you c.n in your area. I'm sure you're familiar with the loc.l hi-fi shops :*)

I don't think the Rotel stuff is too aggresive - as a matter of fac., I feel it's the opposite. I have almost the same set-up (991 amp, though, not familiar with the 990...)

Rotel amps often measure a bit on the dark side - a bit of HF rolloff here and there. C.mpared to a Bryston, for eg., the Rotel will indeed sound more distant. During our A/B demo, my dealer liked the c.oser-stage presentation, I wasn't so sure. Don't get me wrong, the Bryston did c.rtain things better (at thric. the pric.).

You c.n do a searc. for "under $2000 speakers" for a million ideas. In the pric. range, I liked the Dynaudios, Revels, Vandies and the Ref 3A de C.pos. These all have a "meaty" presentation.

Good luc. in the hunt, at let us know what you have heard...
