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.

I agree those vapor derechos look sweet! I sent that company an email to see if they offer in home trial.
While the Beethoven models are a nice upgrade from the Mozart, I agree with Guido that you need the Mahler for an end of game upgrade.
JugHead, I have heard Beethoven Grand and Mahler in the same system, being driven by a Rowland 500W M312 stereo at RMAF several years ago.... I did fall instantly in love with the Mahlers and eventually bought a pair... There was a night and day difference with Beethoven Grands... I found the latter to be fine speakers, but sounded "matter of fact" and far from the enchanting Mahlers.

Since then, Beethoven Grands have been significantly updated... You might want to ask the seller when the pair in consideration was manufactured.

The Beethoven's are the latest design, I'll see what I can find for used Mahler's and look into them more.
