Description

Kind of a scattered system at this point.. renting a place while home is being built. new music room won't be dedicated, but plan on using quite a bit. it will be 16 x 18 approx. size.

For now, just trying to figure out where to go with the system. I like R&R and some blues mostly. (loud most of the time). The system sounds really spacious but kind of seems limited at higher volumes.. I find myself listening to acoustic guitar stuff and Natalie Merchant/Fleetwood Mac type stuff most of the time because it's what sounds best on it...My wife likes the look of the speakers but not sure if they are the weakest link right now or not.. Cables are not that special.. Audioquest and 3M Monster speaker cables..I'm not really a propeller-head at this yet so it's kind of hard to describe any potential limitations accurately (which would help improve the system)..Any Thoughts?

I agree with Nuno, VERY unbalanced system. You have a ways to go to catch up with your amps. I would probably sell them, buy something cheaper and fund the rest of the system upgrades with the balance.

And your coloful grille clothes look nice, but they must wreak havoc with the sound.

Just my thoughts....
