Jazz cymbals, small-group piano, string quartets, and close vocals take priority here, with a network music player feeding a powerful integrated amplifier and revealing stand-mounted speakers. It gives streaming a clean, detailed presentation and plenty of scale for a medium living room. You give up some deep-bass weight compared with larger floorstanding speakers.

Lowest frequency response across the system’s components. Approximate — a component is excluded only when it declares an amplifier wattage without also declaring a sensitivity figure, so an amplifier that happens to report a sensitivity slips through and can pull the reading down.

Drive difficulty88.0 dB/W
99.0 dB/W85.0 dB/W

Speaker sensitivity normalised to 8 ohms. Approximate — we do not record whether a figure was quoted per watt or per 2.83 volts, so a non-8-ohm speaker can be out by up to 3 dB.
