Klipsch Heresy IV vs Omega CAM

Hi all,

I have a Luxman SQ-N150 amp and I’m debating between the Klipsch Heresy IV and the Omega CAM. Obviously different prices, sizes and design philosophies but I’m wondering which would suit my needs better. I listen to all genres from hip hop to jazz to classical to indie and classic rock. Also, I live in an apartment so I tend to listen at low volumes. Do both speakers satisfy at low listening volumes? Will the Klipsch be a bother to neighbors? I know they still have quite a bit of low end roll off. Further info: Listening distance is around 7-8’ feet and they’ll have to be against a wall with about 7-8’ between the speakers. Any other thoughts on soundstage/clarity/vibe between the two?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks for all your thoughts and insight. I’m gonna throw another high sensitivity option in that I’m considering: the Zu Omen II. How do they compare for low level listening/apartment situations? General thoughts on them vs the Omegas? I’ve read mixed things regarding whether or not the Zus are forgiving in terms of placement etc. Any further insight on them is appreciated.

Additional info I didn't mention regarding the room: Despite the listening position being 7-8' from the speakers, the room itself is actually a bit larger at around 11'x18' with very high ceilings (I'd guess >15') and with openings to adjacent rooms.
