Wide dispersion + high efficiency + detail + coherence in a speaker?


And coherence is the biggest point! I like the liveliness of single driver speakers but I am looking for something with coherence AND bass! High efficiency is important for liveliness, and wide dispersion for a huge sweet spot and instruments in the room presentation.

Any recommendations?

The only speaker I have personally auditioned that fits all of your criteria, and does so very well, is the Coincident Pure Reference Extreme.   It is 26K.  I can also say that I own both the Coincident Super Victory II speakers and the Triumph Extreme II monitors.  They both have superb coherence, as defined by mapman above.  They both sound like single driver speakers, as does the PRE.  I have not heard the Total Victory or the new Dynamite.  The PRE and SVIIs I would characterize as lively, but the SV II has a laid back demeanor.   The Coincident speakers run from 92.5-94 dB efficiency, depending upon model.   As always, an audition is mandatory.
