In speaker reviews, I would appreciate some comments on how well the speaker performs at lower volumes. Some speakers don't deliver the goods at all until you crank them, while others can be very satisfying at low volume. I want to know this.
I also appreciate overall characterizations of components, such as Teajay's excellent digital thread elsewhere on Audiogon. Comments such as "great bass, transparent midrange, sparkling highs" don't help me as much as an observation that a component is characterized by an overall pristine clarity and detail, while another component is all about a relaxed, soft focus. Even a red wine - white wine distinction is helpful, but maybe that's just me.
