What creates the effortlessness in sound reproduction?


Hello, 
I have a chance to listen some speakers in the last 10 years. I notice that there are 2 speakers which produced sound 'effortlessly', even at low or high volume levels (I never tried max levels on them since they are not mine). With this effortlessness, listening to music is very relaxing. 

I wonder what makes the effortlessness in these speakers? 

Please shed some light on this. 

Thank you.

This is what I experience with the large mastering monitors I prefer to use. They just tell me IS THIS ALL YOU GOT!! whatever I throw at them. Great feeling :-)

I fully agree an in-room balanced and powerful bass is fundamental.


The biggest problem though I believe is the lack of good recordings. Let me mention one that holds for any sound level - Cream reunion live at the Albert Hall. Bluray.
