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.

High efficiency horn loaded + EQ, either software based at streamer or analog piece between DAC or pre.amp and amp set to compensate for fletcher-Munson curve noted above. I often listen at low volume and have a Klark-Teknik DN-360 between DAC and integrated amp feeding Klipsch horns. Sounds very full and alive at low volumes. When I turn it up louder, simply disengage the EQ or turn boost way down. Works great.

With your budget look at Volti horn loaded speakers.
