BEST SPEAKER THAT COMES TO LIFE AT LOW LISTENING LEVELS

My system is as follows:

  1. Martin Logan 11A Impressions hybrid electrostatic speakers.
  2. Bryston 4B3 cubed power amp 300 per channel into 8 and 500 into 4.
  3. Bryston BP-19 preamp, Chord Qutest Dac & Lumin U2 mini stream.
  4. SVS subs-pair of SB-4000
  5. I listen at 55-60 dbs. Can anybody recommend a speaker with a budget of $15,000.00 per pair that sounds alive and dynamic at low listening levels. My dealer sells, Totem, Triangle and Proac.
  6. Any recommendations would be appreciated. Due to age and ear issues I can listen comfortably at 55-60 dbs and not much louder. 
  7. Thanks in advance for any help that you can provide.

Many people here wanting to throw equipment/$$$ at a problem without completely understanding the problem first IMHO... It's akin to mechanics who simply replace parts without doing thorough diagnostics.

@sgordon1 has the right idea: Get an ear exam. Fully understand what your ears are really hearing, or not as the case may be. Then you can start working on a solution be it, EQ, room treatments, whatever. 

That reminds me, I need to get an exam as well. I'm not getting any younger!

Happy listening.
