Which Component Has the Greatest Affect on Low-Level Listening

I'm looking to get out of HT 5.1 and go strictly to 2 ch.  I generally have music playing all day, often just sitting done to listen to certain tracks.  

I've read that "some" speakers don't sound "good" until high listening level, and also an integrated such the Luxman 505 don't sound good at low levels (is that the reason they include loudness?).

Which component, the amp or speaker, has the greatest impact on low level listening quality?

Hi,

No doubt that more dynamic is available, more the listening to low level is confortable...
Try to compare mp3 vs cd or hi res..
Physiologic correction with loudness ( fletcher)remains artificial but efficient compromise  with hifi standart components..

As far as the amp reproduce the "matter" I would say that electronic is involved in the result..
