Economical full-range floor-standing speaker options?


Short List of full-range considerations for 2-ch music...

Tekton Double-Impact (which I’ve owned) $3,000(new):
  • 98.82dB 2.83V@1m sensitivity, 4 Ohm
  • ±3dB 20Hz-30kHz
  • ±1dB 70Hz-20kHz
  • Sold because they couldn’t produce LXmini ’magic’ imaging.
Considering the smaller-form-factor Tekton Electron/SE $3,000(new):
  • 98.82dB 2.83V@1m sensitivity, 4 Ohm
  • ±3dB 20Hz-30kHz
  • ±1dB Anyone know?
  • Narrower baffle might image better than DI’s?
Another consideration is GoldenEar Triton 2+, $4k(new):
  • 91dB 2.83V@1m sensitivity, 8 Ohm, built-in 1200w amp for subs
  • ±3dB 16Hz-35kHz
  • ±1dB Anyone know?
Or GoldenEar Triton 3+, (currently in my HT-system), $2.8k(new):
  • 90dB 2.83V@1m sensitivity, 8 Ohm, built-in 800w amp for subs
  • ±3dB 21Hz-35kHz
  • ±1dB Anyone know?
  • Could move these to 2-ch system.
Thinking to simplifying my system, which is currently ’littered’ with stuff required by LXmini and their subs. Outside of the above ’box’ speakers, good candidates for creating LXmini-level imaging is:

Spatial M3 Saphire, $5k(new):
  • 92dB 2.83V@1m sensitivity, 4 Ohm
  • ±3dB 32Hz-40kHz (not quite full-range)
  • ±1dB Anyone know?
Any other ideas out there for full-range with linear response?

“Salk speakers are interesting. Their response curves are cut off at 200 Hz. Nothing bellow. Disturbing”

Huh?  Are you saying that Salks don’t produce sound under 200hz?

Lots of great suggestions above.  In addition, I see a set of PBN XPS https://www.audiogon.com/listings/lisa7j1e-pbn-audio-xps-full-range and this Goldmund https://www.audiogon.com/listings/lis9j37f-goldmund-super-dialogue-full-range that likely, in either case, would be all you would ever need.   This also might fit the bill:  https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649541523-atc-scm40-v2-original-owner-pristine/images/2351151/.  Else, also consider Revel, Aerial, larger ProAcs, and the nice JBL stuff.  


+1 on the ATC SCM40v2.  Another member just bought a pair of those based on my recommendation.  ATC is awesome!  Possibly the most overbuilt drivers in hifi
Mijostyn where did you see that frequency response for Salk almost all go to at least 50 hz and some are flat to 20hz check the web page please before spreading false info.
Along the lines of Fritz, Salk and Tekton in terms of value, you may want to check out Bache audio from Brooklyn.
