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?
Yep agree, a Loki is the Schiit, for this sort of thing, discrete very transparent, I use one "flat" as a buffer to drive my two sub woofers very transparent.
To me super efficient speakers driven passively by say a Schiit Aegir 20w Class-A. are the way for low level listening, "IF" you can handle their colorations/distortions, I can’t, "especially" horns.
