Thank you everyone for the input! I’m going down the slippery slope now and considering increasing my budget to $30k or so now…
Still trying to pore through hundreds of pages on other threads but front runners for me now are Genelec 8351B/W371A vs a used set of KEF Blade One Metas with maybe a subwoofer if necessary.
Seems like both have hugely loyal fan bases and both companies are top notch. I’m planning to use them in stereo listening fashion. But if I ever did decide to move into a home with a large enough room, I may consider a 7.1 home theater setup and it seems Genelec with their GLM would be the easiest option for future proofing. Am I correct in that assumption? I understand active speakers have more wiring and components at the risk of needing separate maintenance in the future, but it seems Genelecs have top notch construction and repairability so this doesn’t really concern me.
