Best Late Night Low Volume Speaker

I just sold a pair of Zu Essence and the first thing I noticed going to my new pair was that they don't have that EFFORTLESS sound that the Essence's had. Retrieval of low-level detail was astonishing with the Essence and I think that is what makes late-night listening (or in my case VERY early morning listening), enjoyable. Yes, they are 97 db/ 12 ohm which makes them very easy to drive. They had so much impact and dynamics at low volumes. I didn't know it until it was gone. Very underrated speaker.

Yes, Tobias. My new Omega MaxHemp V2's are VERY revealing at low volumes, giving an easy, effortless sound. The amp is very quiet, almost zero noise from the drivers. IMHO the relationship between amp and speaker are key for retrieval of low level information and IN MY EXPERIENCE, high efficiency speakers help a lot with this.
