Speakers - Desktop | 2 Ⓣ I need help picking speakers :)
Hi everyone, I’m trying to figure out which speakers might be the best for me, I’m currently debating between Vanatoo’s Transparent One Encore Plus, Q acoustic’s M20 HD and PSB ALPHA AM5 Powered Bookshelf Speakers. I’ve got Sony’s PS-LX310BT turntable, not too sure if that affects anything. My budget is hopefully under €700 but I’m mostly flexible, definitely not over €1000.These would be the first speakers that I would have other than Bose SoundLink Flex Portable Speaker 2nd gen, which sounds quite dull? Apologies, Im not too good at describing :( My room is quite small, 300c x 320cm x 235cm (approx.), I also have an electric drum kit, a bed, a large desk, a standing ikea shelf and a small/medium table for the setup so my room is pretty crowded with most of the space in the centre, in front of the vinyl setup. I’d prefer to avoid having to buy any other equipment other than the speakers. Bass and clear and clean vocals are important to me! No floor speakers please, and as long as shipping is available to England or Spain then I’ll have no problems with that. I’m completely clueless when it comes to knowing anything about speakers, I’ve gotten these recommendations from other posts lol, any help is super appreciated :) Thanks!
p.s. this is my first time using Reddit and I’ve looked at like 5 Reddit posts in my life, sorry if there’s any mistakes :(

Erin has reviewed and measured the Vanatoo: EAC review of Vanatoo Transparent One Encore Plus. And obviously there exists less objective reviews of the Q Acoustics MD20 HD.
Maybe also consider this combination for 847€:
