ZU Druids. 103 DB and a wonderful speaker. Bass galore and unified sound as it uses a single drive plus a super tweeter. BTW - they move quickly when they come up on Gon. I've had mine for about 3 months and have fallen head over heals for these babies. An added plus, they are bottom-ported so you can put them within inches of a wall. I use mine for nearfield listening and they bested Magenpans, Mark and Daniel Rubys as well as Gallo Dues (though these others are not high efficiency speakers).
High efficiency speakers
Hi,
I am getting into low wattage SET amps (specifically the 18w Lamm ML2.1). I am told that to realize the full benefits of such low powered SETs, you need high efficiency (>95db) speakers with benign impedance curve. But when I look around, these speakers are often horn based, huge and unattractive (to my eyes), and have problems with low bass (either no low bass or needs powered woofers whose integration is a problem).
My question to the experts out there. Have you come across well designed high efficiency speakers that are full range, don't take space like Avantgarde Trios, and look as nice as a Kharma?
Thanks for your suggestions.
