Efficient speaker: Zu, Tekton, Volti, Klipsch, Fleetwood?


We’re moving and I’m looking for a high-efficiency, high impedance speaker that can fill a very large “great room” with smooth, open, detailed sound, both for serious listening and casual background music. I currently have Devore Super 9s, but those will be going in a separate dedicated listening room. I thought about getting another pair of Devores (maybe the O/93) for the great room because I love this brand, but I’m interested in other possibilities The new speakers will be on either side of a 6-foot TV console, so they’ll need to sound good fairly close to the wall behind them. And they will need to have a reasonably good WAF. They will be played mainly at low-moderate sound levels and our tastes include rock, classical, world music and “spa” type relaxation stuff.

Anyone who is familiar with any of the following candidates, please feel free to sound off. As you can see, price ranges are all over the place:

Zu Soul Supreme

Tekton Lore

Volti Razz

Klipsch Forte IV

Fleetwood Deville

Others?

128x128ladok

Oh yes, Altecs are one of my favorites too. Modified JBL Hartsfield, JBL DD550000 or DD67000. Not on his list either, but super nice. Sorry carlsbad, I HAVE listened to the Tektons, ng.

Audiovector R3, even the brochure says high WAF! 
 

and they are great speakers. 

Omega Loudspeakers.  Wonderful full range speakers that are fantastically efficient.

Zu Soul Supreme 97dB

Tekton Lore 98dB

Volti Razz 97dB

Klipsch Forte 99dB

Fleetwood Deville 94dB

mapman: Tekton is not in same efficiency class as the others. 

Closing in on 20k posts. Maybe time to knuckle down and try and get one right? For a change?
