Thought I would start a new thread since it turns out what I am looking for is not really "cost no object".
My ceiling is $1000. My music is 50s-60s jazz (mostly) and some rock - jazz is the priority! I now own AT 900 Ltds and like them very much but after five years would just like something else.
OPEN vs CLOSED: open preferred. These would be used mainly at home with low ambient noise.
I am really, really curious about Stax electrostats, which I've never heard. I am really leaning towards trying some. They seem to have many models in the < $1000 price range with substantial differences difficult to discern (from specs).
I am also leaning towards trying the AT W1000.
(I am amiable to buying new to try and reselling what I don't like.)
Any thoughts welcome - thanks.
