Small-ish Speakers That Come Alive At Low Volume


domestic situation requires a smallish (monitor or bookshelf) speaker with most listening being done at low to moderate levels.

hoping to hear some recommendations for speakers that aren't too large and don't need to be played loud to really come alive.

preamp is Aesthetix Calypso; amp is Spectron Musician 3 mk2

many thanks,

I had the Cometes and got some 3A De Capos and found they do even better at low volumes than the Cometes especially with dynamics.
Hmm, those De Capos are interesting, 92db efficient and 9 ohm.

Apparently a bit pricier but very interesting at least on paper.
wow, lots of great suggestions here... thanks, all. i've got some research to do! i should have mentioned - budget is up to $2500 used.

One of the best small effective loudspeakers in the World. I highly recommend Role Audio FTL monitors. You will not be dissapointed, excellent in low vol.level listening with detail and the price is great - email for more info.
