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.

Hi

I also like to listen at low volume. I have found in my experience the single driver crossover less speaker allows me to listen at low level and all musical nuance is revealed.

In my opinion (and I am not alone) that a multi driver speaker with a low volume signal all that detail gets lost in the crossover. To compensate for that signal loss the volume has to be raised to allow the detail to flow.

Thanks

Bob

Dear Bob:

Would it be possible for you to give examples of speakers that are single driver speakers without a cross over?    Thank you.

Hi

I think there are many company’s who make single driver crossover less speakers. You can do an internet search, that would be the best way to familiarize yourself on this subject.

I can tell you about the single driver speakers I have. They are Omega speakers out of Newtown, Connecticut

Give them a call and talk to Louis. He never BS’ed me !

Thanks

Bob

PS Single driver speakers have certain characteristics should be investigated
