High Efficiency Speakers Your top 3 or more

Tvad, the Audionote speakers IMHO do not represent high efficiency speakers, although I do like them once Peter has set them up.

Mmike84, My favorite high efficiency speakers are: the Beauhorn Virtuousos and the Exemplar tractrix horns. I also thought the old Maxhorn using Feastrex drivers was excellent. I am once again out of my high efficiency and SET period and back to my modest efficiency multiple driver with fairly powerful SS amp period. What I really want is a single, one inch, full-range driver capable of 20-20k Hz speaker that is 103 db efficient. I haven't found any:)

Gawdbless, I guess they are indeed high efficiency. I have heard them briefly. I guess I would never venture there, just too big and expensive.

Mapman, I would like to hear that also.

I have never heard the field coil Shindo Labs LaTour speakers but have heard the field coil Feastrex drivers. Forget using them full range, but wow from 60 Hz to 20k Hz.

Mmike84, having long ago auditioned the AudioNote SEs and having heard them sound wonderful in Peter Qvortrup's home earlier, especially in conveying the emotions of the music, I must say there is a major issue of setting them up properly. At shows, where Peter sets them up, they are always in the room corners and substantially toed in. In Peter's listening room they were not so carefully placed and not in the corners. In my room they were away from the rear wall and side walls, and I could not get anywhere near with the sounds I had previously heard.

At the last THE Show, the Audio Federation room did not sound very good until the last days and Peter's alignment.
