Best Speakers under 1k for me

Hey guys, so my birthday is coming up and I want to put some money towards a new speaker purchase. My current setup is Chromecast-Topping D30-LM3886 Chip amp (in progress)-Q Acoustics Concept 20.

I've been hearing great things about the lxmini's and Zu audio Omen. My room is about 11x13ft and one half of my front wall is a double pane window. I can build another amp pretty cheaply for biamping.

What do you think? I'd prefer to not use a separate subwoofer.

If your thinking Zu I’d recommend the Dirty Weekends when they’re available. For $999 they are exceptional and you probably won’t need a sub.

Do you think they would be a good fit for my room?

I'd love to hear about other people experiences with the lxmini's as well.

The Emotiva T2’s are pretty great for the price, they just aren’t everybody’s cup of tea asthetic wise, as they look like studio monitors.

I would suggest going to the Zu audio website. They compare the Zu Omen Mk 1, Omen Dirty Weekend Mk ll and the Omen Mk ll.
I bought Omen Mk 1 used for $300 and am planning a driver upgrade that Zu Audio offers for 699.00. They refund $200, upon the successful return your old drivers. Also there is always someone there to answer your questions.
