What speakers for 10k?


Looking to buy the end of game speakers, currently I have Vienna Acoustics Mozart Grand. My amp is the Parasound a21 with the Parasound p5 pre amp, Marantz sa8001 sacd and the Marantz sr5001 avr, psa xs15se sub. My budget is 5 to 10k on main speaker upgrade.

Buy the Nimbus (or something in that general price) now and get off the upgrade train, if not permanently, for at least a longer period of time. The Stiff Breeze is another $2,500 speaker, and while it may be a great $2,500 speaker (I have not heard it), it is not the answer to "What speaker for $10k?"

If you want to make a significant leap forward in the quality of your sound reproduction you can't make it taking small steps. Just my experience, FWIW.

Best of luck in your search.

I love Vapor Audio. The Nimbus is my 2nd all time favorite speaker. Sounds amazing and I love the looks of it. I could justify spending $20k on a pair, if of course, I had $20k :)

Just curious, why not the sundog white? I would think that the accuton and raal would really please you...
without hearing a vapor speaker I don't want to spend to much at first, just wanna get a taste of their speakers and go from there. the stiff breeze is the upper half of the nimbus and if I don't like it I don't think id have much problem selling them. And I agree the Nimbus is sexy as hell!
Just wondering if there is a free trial period with Vapor speakers? If not what's the resale situation with them. Not sure what the risk is if you don't end up liking them or they're just not to your personal taste.
