Thank you everyone for your responses so far. This is exactly what I was hoping for, a conversation. I did subjective evaluations based on short listening sessions, and liked D9. But before I dropped any money, I wanted to ask for opinions. The D7 measurements shared here have prompted me to educate myself further. Thx.
What are your recommendations for good floor standing speakers that cost up to US $16,000?
Overall Setup - I am considering is Bryston 4B3 with a tube preamp. I listened to -
- Copland 305, which I really liked
- VTL 2.5, did not like. Will try 5.5.
- Will be auditioning Audible Illusions Modulus 3B
- Nagra Classic which I absolutely loved, but there is no way I can afford it
