Recommendations for speakers that sound great at lower volume levels.


I have a pair of Harbeth SHL5 Plus and they sound wonderful when I crank them up. But at moderate to low volume levels they sound disappointingly flat and unengaging - instruments are less palpable, bass has less bloom, and soundstage has less air and dimensionality. I drive my speakers with a tube integrated - a Line Magnetic 845 rated at 26 watts of power. My Harbeths are rated at 86db. Would a higher sensitivity speaker be helpful? Or how about a good quality small shoebox sized pair of speakers coupled with a subwoofer? Or not. What speakers are going to deliver music you can feel at low volume levels? What say all you wisened audiophiles?

Don’t tear me apart for this. 
  BIC venturi dv-64 pair, or the venturi dv-62 bookshelf speakers are very very good!!

 They are rather fugly looking, but not too bad. I gave the dv-84 pair to my cousin, they are bright for me, he absolutely loves them.
they use very descent woofers, and vifa tweeters, they are very good sounding for the price.  Nice soundstage, bass is above average, midrange on the dv84’s was a bit odd,  the smaller dv-64’s sound much better.  The little dv62 bookshelf’s are great!

   I will suggest the dv-62LCR as a pair of great speakers. I use them in my garage, they are great little speakers, full range , great sound.

   Most will call them trash, I love the dv62lcr pair, amazing with a 80W old Yamaha receiver in garage, fills whole garage, 
I did tape a single layer of t-shirt over the vifa tweeter, as I don’t like bright speakers. After a few months, I removed the cloth square, and they are. Sublime.  I had them in my 2nd system for a short while, 
    You can find great prices on these if you look. 
If you can find Energy rc-10’s pair, for a good price, get them, they are soooo smoooth!,
 better is the energy rc-lcr. - they are the best sounding bookshelf’s I have ever used. Still looking for a new pair for a fair price. 
Martin Logan makes some wicked bookshelf speakers, so does Axiom, their prices more than doubled, but they are a top notch speaker and I’ve wanted the m80’smformamlong time, when I had the cash saved, the price was more than I could spend when the prices raised. Enjoy the hunt. 
For great new Higher end speaker Marten Oscars very good across the board  and very fair priced vs the competition 
and noticeably better IMO.
@audioman58 Which Tannoys do you own. I am smitten by my new Autograph Minis at any volume level.  Very much want to demo Kensington GRs. (I’ve heard the GRF but have been told the Kensington’s are voiced closer the Minis than the GRF.  
I don’t own Tannoys  , now they will be no longer made in the U.K
i would never even consider buying them now ,China specials 
same price point, No thanks.
