Large mid/bass, soft-dome tweeter, high(ish) sensitivity


Hi everyone,

 

I’m looking for speakers with the above characteristics. By "large" mid/bass, I mean at least 8 inches, though less than 15. I mostly listen at low volumes, below 70db, so I want something that can come on song with ease, hence the larger driver and higher sensitivity. My room is also pretty reflective, with the rear wall almost entirely windows, so I’m looking for something with a forgiving treble response. I should also add that I'd prefer to keep the price ~$2000.

 

Wharfedale Linton seems to check most of these boxes, but I’m wondering if there’s something else out there that I’m missing. Let me know!

 

Thanks.

Many speakers OB or not benefit from being 4+ feet from front wall. IMO more important is to clear the space between the speakers as much as possible

@audionoobie one more thing—do your Vandersteens play nicely at low volumes? Steve Guttenberg said the 2Ce wasn't so great for low listening.
