We're going to have the Lone Star Audio Fest in Dallas two weeks from now. Have no real idea if there might be any speaker that might be a good fit there, but will definitely be there on Sunday. Maybe I get lucky.
Very nice!

No, Krell, but Gryphon works as well. But with WAF, I wouldn't really advise in case room got smaller...in your current room the scintilla and duetta will be unbeatable and will look great as well as they can be painted anyway. But yes, they look invasive in smaller spaces and the reason I initially suggested Heco, over better speakers, is that it is the best, low priced speaker that I know off that fits small rooms and is least invasive (compared to panels and cones)
Currently exploring one of Bonzo' speaker recommendations;-

Hi wisnon, nice to see you around here. Haven't been much in CA lately.
I've heard of the Heil AMT, but never listened to them. They seem to be something special, but the visuals would probably land me in the dog house (which I preemptively don't have). Still would be curious to listen to these just out of curiosity. Thanks for reminding me of these even if it is to just get to know something different.
Best
Those Boenicke look very interesting. That's the first time I've come across that brand.
I don't know if that's the one I heard today here, but they were very good, and very dynamic! Thin floorstanders with massive side-firing woofer.
These were fantastic at the LA Show. Granted, I was sitting in the first row, almost near-field. But they do sound a lot better than their price would suggest, and they were being driven by reasonably priced electronics from Audio Alchemy as well.
Unfortunately, delivery is only in early August.
cheers,
alex
Thanks, @tedtag. I'm trying to reduce my list, but will still try to listen to these. Only problem is see is that they are taller than what I'm aiming at. We're starting to get into Salon2 territory here.I had a pair of Acoustic Zen Crescendo II's and sold them on Agon for $10K. I loved these speakers and they are gorgeous. When I bought them they retailed for $18K but I got them direct from Robert the designer for $12K. They sound wonderful and are not fussy at all with room position. Also, they are very efficient and did great with my CJ Classic 60 watt stereo amp, and even better with big tube mono blocks. Might be worth checking out.....
