I really like my old ESS AMT1's. It's hard to beat the qualities of a big dipole AMT. They're bright, the midrange needs help, and the bass sounds 40 years old, but I still enjoy them with my old Marantz units. I think they're vastly better than old Advents or Pioneers if you monkey with the tone controls enough.
What speakers to go with my new Marantz 2265?
Just purchased a nice Marantz 2265 receiver to stand in for my Rotel while it's in the shop. I was thinking something vintage might be nice in the way of speakers but that's not a must. Currently I have my Rotel hooked up to a pair of Paradigm mini monitor V2's which sound great. When I get the Rotel back I'm thinking of having a "vintage sound" system in one room with the Marantz and a more modern sound system in another room utilizing the Rotel.
I listen to primarily rock and jazz at a "medium" volume due to neighbors in close proximity and play mostly vinyl LP's
What do you recommend to complete my vintage system? Thanks!
