It's a very neutral and realistic sound.įrequency Range (+/-3 dB) 53 - 26,500 The mids are very well rendered with lots of definition. You can hear the vibrato when the stand-up bass is bowing. Instruments are sounding like musical instruments. The bass is very true and vibrant, and the highs are spot-on. At low volume levels it sounds most like a more expensive BBC near-field monitor. It's the only one that seems to be exceeding expectations and sounding more expensive than it is. So far they're knocking the socks off every other sub-$600 bookshelf speaker I've tried from Wharfedale Elac and Klipsch. Right now I'm trying out a pair of Dali Zensor 1 speakers in my 10x10 home space. Just buy them and try out at home for a few days. My space at home is also small, and I never use my speakers past about 30% volume, so I need efficient speakers at low volume just like you. If it sounds muddled in mid at low volume or string instruments don't sound defined or voices don't sound clear as a bell at low volume then I know the speaker won't work for me. But you can get a good sense of a speaker's capabilities with the simple listening test I try at very low volume. Soundstage and bass boominess etc I have to evaluate at home. That's about all I can do in a sales demo room. I listen for naturalness of string and voice. I look to see if bass notes sound thin from a bass instrument. I have the sales rep turn volume way way down and then I listen closely to just one speaker. 87db and 6 ohms looks pretty good to me! If it was 8 ohms I'd consider other models in this price range, but 6 ohms looks good, and when I listened they sounded good. The specs look excellent, and they are under $300.
