I have an NAD c 268 amp, a modius dac, a SYS preamp and PMC DB1 Gold speakers. Up until this evening, I thought my speakers were great and the lynchpin of whatever system I would end up with. But tonight I read some reviews about these PMC speakers and apparently the results of measurements are "a mess" (quoted a poster here).
Some possibly important facts: I do not listen to music while positioned in one spot - I move around. My room size is a innopportune 10' x 25' but effectively 10' x 10' since I consider that my living space (the other space is used as dining table, etc.). I have an SVS SB-1000 sub woofer.
Are these speakers so subpar that I would notice a huge improvement by buying a comparable set of bookshelf speakers that measure well at ASR? If the answer to that is yes, then I will get a set of tower speakers, nothing huge - could anyone make a recommendation? price limit would be $5,000.
