Hi,
I'm trying to identify what set of bookshelf speakers is best given my personal taste for audio, which is as follows:
My budget is less than $300 so just looking for whatever is closest to my ideal in that admittedly limiting price range.
I've done a lot of research but having a hard time mapping how reviewers describe audio characteristics to what I'm imagining. However, my best interpretations of what I'm reading have led me to this list
Jbl a130
Pioneer sp bs22 lr
Kef q150 ($300 on Amazon the most expensive model I'm considering)
Sony sscs5
Dayton audio b652
Jamo s803
Also curious which brands, if any, tend to design speakers with these characteristics.
Thanks.
(also, yeah, I know my taste in audio is weird)
I'm trying to identify what set of bookshelf speakers is best given my personal taste for audio, which is as follows:
- deep, but soft low end. A low end that goes down to the 30s but is not thumping. I want to hear low end audio to very low frequencies but I don't want it to dominate whatever I'm listening to. (requiring a subwoofer with these characteristics is fine). I want to hear but not feel the bass.
- emphasis on accuracy for vocals, string instruments, piano, and other non-percussive instruments. Also prefer these frequencies to be the most prominent.
- sound great at low volume. I never play my music above the volume of normal conversation.
