Fed up with my speakers
#1
Hello All

Since years, I am listening to ATC speakers. First I had the ATC SCM11s that had been replaced with the ATC SCM19s v1. Both speakers had been run with my Devialet Expert 120. I very much liked the ,no frill' sound of the ATCs, clean and clear. But right from the beginning I thought both sounded a bit bright and definitely bass shy. In the last few months I definitely got bored with the sound of the SCM19s to the extent that it is time to switch speakers. A possibility would be to go to the ATC SCM40, but I already heard them at a local vendor and even though they sounded extremely clean, I wasn't so much attracted to them.
The speakers are positioned in a smallish living room, about 3 x 4.5 metres.

I looked through a number of loudspeaker brands and I am considering the following monitors for further evaluation:

Buchardt S400 (https://www.buchardtaudio.com/shop)

Amphion Argon 3S (https://amphion.fi/enjoy/products-home-a...udspeaker/)

KEF R3 (https://us.kef.com/speaker/hi-fi-speakers/r3.html)

Bowers & Wilkins 705 S2 (https://www.bowerswilkins.com/home-audio/705-s2)

Would anyone have experience with one of the above speakers? And if so, I very appreciate feedback how they sound with the Devialets. In particular, the Buchardt S400 has 4 Ohms impedance. Would that not break my Devialet's neck?

I am not in a hurry at all, I want to weigh my options carefully.

Thanks a lot for feedback!

Best regards to all!
