Book Shelf Speakers

[freesteve]

Looking .for recommendations on passive book shelf speakers;  must be black.  I have Bowers and Wilkins, and they sound too muddled  with my Outlaw receiver so pleas e recommend book shelfs that will produce more "details," thanks...

Using Focal Chorus 806V in a second system. Very detailed and transparent. Suggest you give them an audition.

You don't mention a budget, but I just got some Audio Physic Compact Classics last weekend and they are amazing. Lots of detail while still staying very musical, and the first speaker I've had that the boxes totally disappear. Audio Physic are on to the Two version now so able to pick these up at a good price  - I got some dealer demo's at 1/2 price. No idea how much better the latest version might be and really don't care. White glass, though they make black glass and black veneer models as well. No ports so can work good near a wall.

these... if you are using  Audeze LCD-3 headphones  it will be hard to live with less in a speaker (ie deal with cabinet colorations)

if you can live with floor placement, and have sufficient space, these would be a better use of money.

is the intention to put the speakers actually on bookshelves?

I resolved this, but "thanks" for your input.
