Looking for some new speakers for my dedicated 2 channel room. Current speakers are RBH R55Ti towers driven by a NAD C375BEE integrated. My listening room is 12x12, with the stereo set up in a diagonal configuration across one of the corners. This setup yields a listening configuration of a 6' equilateral triangle. I'm afraid my current speakers are just too big for the room. They sound good, but it takes cranking up the volume to really get them to sing. I'm thinking I might be better off with a set of small monitors. First speaker that came to my mind was the KEF ls50 (or the R300). Great reviews, and universally praised. Then I started reading about the BBC LS3/5a monitors. That has led me to 3 speakers. The Harbeth P3esr ($2.1k), Spendor S3/5R2 ($1.6k), and the Stirling Broadcast LS3/5a ($2k). I can find a lot of info on the Harbeth's, but not the other 2. Any suggestions? Anything else I should be looking at? This will be for music only (jazz, classical, classic rock).
