Small Floorstander That Uses Ribbon Tweeters?


I'm looking for a small floorstander that uses Ribbon tweeters instead of the conventional dome tweeter. This speaker must sound good in a small room, at low volume and within a close distance.

This speaker caught my attention, and seems to be what im looking for but are no longer being made - http://www.av-express.com/AV-Catalog/Loudspeakers/BG-Radia-Loudspeakers-Z-7-Tower-Speaker-Neo3-PDR-Tweeter-Cherry

Something similiar to this model would be ideal, maybe even better would be a two way design with more efficiency.

I will be using an Denon PMA-2000ivr intergrated amp ( for now) with is veeeery laid back. Although I plan to upgrade to a NAD 372/375bee/m3 in the near future.

Thank you very much for the answers.
@Bam214 I heard the dealer that sold me my current speakers talk about getting the E-3 to fill a specific price point. Let's see when he gets one. Thanks for the hint.
@Csmgolf The Motive 2 has a SE version that uses a ribbon, but I believe that I'd probably have to look at the Elite to find the quality that I'm looking for. They are fantastic little speakers, though.
I'm also thinking of taking a look at the Scansonic MB floorstanders. Maybe they'll fit the bill.

I don't know of anything that does all that you want...
Legacy Audio Signature SE comes the closest... AMT Mid & Tweeter, goes down to 22 hz. Height is 18 inches. Footprint is not crazy in size. I didn't see you mention a price. Bill does good work, these are very likeable speakers.

@Timlub
Thanks for pointing in the direction of Legacy Audio. Have heard some very nice things about them, but one unanimous opinion is that placement is very finicky and I need speakers that can behave well even without having many options for positioning them well.
