High-Efficiency Single Driver Speaker System


For those of you who have gone to the 'Dark-side'---a high-efficiency single driver system and never looked back, I'd like to get your feedback on two specific things: 1)What type of music do you mostly listen to, and 2)What do you find are the most appealing characteristics that you find lacking in more traditional lower efficient, high power amplifier-based system. I currently have a custom EL34 JWN customized amp rated around 35-45 watts and I'm thinking about going this route.

As for me.... I am a huge fan of crossover less speakers, ever since I owned the Eggleston Andra I speakers. Now I have transitioned to the "high efficiency" crossoverless speakers (I have the Zu Essence and the Tekton Lores), and there is no going back! I agree 100% with what German says about the sound above...

I listen to Blues, Classic Rock, Jazz, and some Folk, and I have a real penchant for all things guitar, piano, and vocals.

In addition to above, these single driver speakers have a speed about them that makes everything sound so real, and less electronic (with the right amp of course (SETs for example, but also well executed push pulls using EL84s or EL34s, which are my preferences).
