Small Floorstander That Uses Ribbon Tweeters?


I'm looking for a small floorstander that uses Ribbon tweeters instead of the conventional dome tweeter. This speaker must sound good in a small room, at low volume and within a close distance.

This speaker caught my attention, and seems to be what im looking for but are no longer being made - http://www.av-express.com/AV-Catalog/Loudspeakers/BG-Radia-Loudspeakers-Z-7-Tower-Speaker-Neo3-PDR-Tweeter-Cherry

Something similiar to this model would be ideal, maybe even better would be a two way design with more efficiency.

I will be using an Denon PMA-2000ivr intergrated amp ( for now) with is veeeery laid back. Although I plan to upgrade to a NAD 372/375bee/m3 in the near future.

The speakers I'm about to recommend are not floorstanders but meet your criteria to a tee. If you don't mind, may I recommend the Clearwave Duet 6 monitors?

In my small to medium sized room they go clean (+/-2db) from 1Khz down to 40Hz, down about 4-5db @31.5Hz and have measurable output @20Hz about 1 meter from the driver. If you listen at mid 70s spl you'll get convincing enough bass to forgo a sub.

I have a review under the speaker review section if you're interested.

All the best,
