I presently use a Dali Zensor 3 mated to a Marantz pm6005.

Need to upgrade to a floorstander to fill my 6mx6m room? Any recommendations? I suppose i need to change my amp as well.

Malaki na din ang 6m X 6m. Depende din actually kung may nagustuhan kang FS. May nabasa ako na sometimes, a FS is a BS with stands. May mga BS din kasi that can beat some FS with ease. For me I think your room can accomodate a FS provided na may nagustuhan ka talagang FS.

Adding a sub will require me to get a new amp as well (pm6005 has mo sub out).

Thats why am considering a full revamp as cost may not be far off if i sell my gear.

Cant seem to find anybody who has a Dali zensor 3 with sub set up.

you can use a REL or a Sumiko sub, which uses a Neutrik speakon connection if you don't have a sub-out. ;)

Am sure there are compromises on the neutrik speakon connect. Can you tell me any downsides

Check out SVS too, they have subs with speaker level connection and their much cheaper and performance is bang for the buck

Tama. Treating a room is also equivalent to upgrading your gears in terms of improvement. Minsan mas-signaficant pa ang improvement. Alam ko meron tayong suking mabait at poging seller sa marketplace. He has absorbers and diffusers din. AFAIK, may ilalabas pa siyang new product, yun fabric lined acoustic absorbers for those who deem WAF as very important.

What is the primary intention for the room?
Is it music or HT?
The gears and speakers you will use is greatly dependent on the intended purpose.
Apology in advance if I missed out on the intended use of the room.

Have a 6m x6m x 8ft room. Definitely floorstander?

If for music, consider DIY with bigger diameter woofer 12" to 15" or Klipsch Heresy (new or old production) & forget about the .1 (sub) if no problem with space.

Drapes is good sir. It can absorb high frequencies. It may also have an effect on mid-high frequencies depending on what is behind the drapes.

Last question mga master, if i stick to bookshelf speakers, will a Rel T5 be sufficient, or i need a T7. The latter is significantly pricier
