High efficiency speakers give you effortless delivery and are extremely dynamic- the 'jump factor' is unparalleled. Noise issues are another matter with high efficiency speakers, based on my experience, but once you get that sorted, these kinds of systems can deliver very lifelike sound without having to be cranked up to ear-splitting levels. I listen at modest volumes.....
Great set up you have there! How do you like the Duos?

Any chance of some photos?
