What makes a speaker sound great at low volume?

Most of the time I hear music at a low volume (wifey, apartment, ....). 

I am looking to upgrade my current speakers, but in my market scanning I would like to understand, if there are certain “metrics” to look for, before I start going to stores for listening. 

Any advice?

From my understanding Frequency Response changes with Volume.
This is  why you see Loudness contour Switches.
i remember Yamaha amps had adjustable Contour Control.
I remember reading The Fletcher-Munson equal Loudness curves.
