Hey Karma.
I have a pair of SP1s that Im looking to replace with something with a bit more bass. I love the sound of these thin wall brits... just want a bit more punch for a fairly sized room without the use of a sub.
Because Im forced to keep them on the ledge that is built around the inside of the barn (yes i live in a barn) and my wife doesn't like the look of floor standing speakers, Im forced to stick with a speaker in this relative size and shape. They are roughly 1'x1'x2'. See attached pic.
So under consideration are modern Spendor SP1/2r2, Harbeth Super HL5plus, Stirling LS3/6. Im looking for a bit more punch and authority and was hoping modern drivers would provide this result. Ill be using a 100W solid state McIntosh amp and Pre.
Im open to any other brands and models that stay within these rough dimension. All opinions welcomed.
