good speaker with Sound stage behind????


Any recommendations for tower speaker in price range $ 1500 where the soundstage is more in the back. I currently an listening to new Monitor audio RS8 and the soundstage sounds more forward to me.I even get a slight headache form listening.I have about 50 hours on them. Previously had NHT 2.5i which soundstage appeared behind but speaker to bright.

Thanks

The Vandersteen 2CE Sig II is a great speaker that offers serious technology lofty drivers at bargain pricing and are not bright.
I would suggest you insist on listening to them if possible without any other speakers in the same room or near them.
Their claim to fame is time correct lofty drivers in separate enclosures which allows its lower diffraction.
the speakers will seem to disappear or integrate better than a typical Box type which allows the listener to be invited into a seamless listening expierience.
They also work well in most homes without room treatment, jumping thru hoops, and are electronic friendly. Furthermore you will most likely not need any bandaid cables that over tame brightness so feel free to remove any from prior abuse and try with a more neutral type cost effective wires like Alpha core goertz Kimber AQ Nordost Etc
