Get a pair of Quad ESL's - 57's, 63's or some of the newer Chinese ones. They all excell at low-to-moderate SPL's. I have two pairs of 57's. I prefer them over my JBL 166's and 4312's, though both are better for loud listening when I want to rock out!
JBL 4349 at low listening levels.
The JBL 4349 was recommended to me for my 11 x 13 room, specifically for its superior dynamics and full bodied sound at low volume levels. My personal definition of low listening levels is 50-55 decibels. I also considered the 4367 which is twice the price of the 4349, but I believe the 4367 would be too big for my room, aesthetically and acoustically.
My question is do the JBL's 4349 play full bodied and dynamic at around 50-55 dbs?
The main reason I am looking at a horn style speaker is because of their supposed superiority at low listening levels.
Thank you for any thoughts you may have.
