Who makes speakers with relaxed high freq.?
I don't know exactly what you are trying to describe.I don't know of a speaker manufacturer with a "relaxed high freq." Think about the only way you can relax high freq. is to buy a equalizer. Suggest a Behringer Ultracurve Pro DEQ2496. 
Whic speaker sensitivity is better for an SET amp?

Why should some speakers need a big room?
Would you put a grand piano is a bedroom?
