BEST SPEAKERS BETWEEN 15k and 30K

What are the best speakers you have heard in this price range?

 

[Cincy2]

I would vote for B&W. They have a few choices in your range. The sound is very neutral and accurately represents what you are using as a source. Build quality is superb.

Avantgarde Duo or Mezzo for maximum "goosebump factor"

@Cincy2 i have tried them way back they are not my cup of tea anymore. They have improved but not my preference.

Look at a pair of used Wilson Sasha DAWs.

In this Range, and as LEE has already said and hinted the direction, I would look for a second hand, in this budget you can bring in second hand - a speaker at a very, very high level, from any respectable manufacturer you can think of. good luck

You can try the second-hand market with Vienna Acoustics The Music (RRP €34,000) or Audio Physic Cardeas Anniversary (RRP €39,000) . I bought my Audio Physic Cardeas Plus (RRP €29,500) practically new in a store that was closing, for €10,500.

Another contender very different from Avantharde - Piega Coax 711. I was truly astonished at their performance after having recently spent time listening to similarly-sized (but even more costly) Magico speakers

I like Vienna acoustics I’m considering these.

I've heard almost all of the best sounding speakers in this price range. In all sincerity the best I've heard in the price range are the Vivid Audio K45 ($19K U.S.) and K90 ($28K U.S.) speakers. And let me add one just above this price range ($34K U.S.), the Vivid Giya series G4s2. The Vivid speakers all have a supremely neutral frequency response and amazing phase response. Beyond these two key areas they have the finest dynamics (both micro and macro) that I've experienced. They are super transparent and clearly allow you to hear the sound of the venue; to a degree beyond anything out there. Naturally, the G4s2 is the best in this last regard. I haven't been this excited by a line of speakers in many, many years.

I’ve heard some vivid. I will be listening to them at shows I attend.

Will come out to visit next summer. Cousin getting married in California. Will listen to your system thanks for the recommendation

TAD E-1.

I'm an importer or dealer for these lines, so heads up. Wolf von Langa SON at $20, Cessaro Horn Acoustics Gaia I at $22, and Horning Hybrid Eufrodite at $26 all are fun options in that budget range.

I will research those

IMHO speaker and cartridge choices are shaped according to personal preferences. So, go for the one you love it’s sound and fits into your room.

I don't know of any other speaker that has so many strengths and so few weaknesses.

Magico A-5 gets my vote.
