Dynamics at lower volumes?


Assuming appropriate source material, what technical characteristics of speakers/amps contribute to good dynamics at low to moderate volume levels? Are there are any speaker or amp designs that are thought to generally be inherently better at producing good dynamics at lower volumes?

Yes, this is mostly how I listen, at lower levels.
I find that if the Source is "clean", and the amplifier,
and pre-amp are neutral, with sensitive speakers, the
"jump factor" is right there.

A term reserved for speakers like the Von Schweikert VR-11.

Because I implement multiple drivers, no single one,
has to work harder than the others, to fill the room.

Rule of loudness:

If it does not sound good at low level, it does not get

any better, increasing the volume.

It is finding the perfect match to optimize the first watt,
into extracting every iota of the Recorded material, to
the speakers.

I could never afford a pair of VR-11's so I tried, in a
rather crude method, to create the same results with
multiple drivers, to cover 12hz.-30hkhz.

Klipsch speakers can sound amazing, if "synergy" exists.
