What is your take on high efficient speakers vs. low efficient speakers?


Consider both designs are done right and your other equipment is well matched with the speakers.  Do you have any preference when it comes to sound quality?  Is it matter of economic decision when it comes to price? - power amps can become very expensive when power goes up, on the other hand large,  efficient speakers are expensive as well.  Is your decision based on room size?  I'd love to hear from you on the subject.

Hi @bache ,

Yes, sensitive speakers do not play bass below 30-40Hz. But this is a compromise with the texture in the middle bass and lower mids, which is absent in dull speakers with low sensitivity.

Regards,

Alex.

@alexberger   bass below 30-40 Hz is not issue. High sensitive drivers  got low moving mass and resonance up to 60-70Hz , so is basically got low performanse in bass . I build my Ls assosiated with my name with build in active bass, also is very important to mach the phase with middle bass . Theoretically is it possible improve the bass , but  cabinet size must be huge

@tannoy56  Below 30Hz ??   .  If  You dont want check by Sound Generator , there are a lot test Cd    to check it . Please  check and let us know.
