High Efficiency Speakers Your top 3 or more

Mapman, the rooms, speakers and electronics were so vastly different that a comparison is impossible. The more expensive room sounded more refined and better balanced as you might expect. It's the old saying, "the same only more."

Visually the $7500 and $50K speakers look identical except for the piano lacquer finish on the $50K model (a $3K upgrade on the $7500 model).

The $50K AN-E have external crossovers with lots and lots of silver wire, silver caps, silver wound magnets, etc.

$40k more? That's seems crazy.

$40k more? That's seems crazy.

An oft repeated lament. What can I say?

The lowly $7500 model did it for me.

Noted.

WAF is a major inhibitor for me with these high efficiency horns because I would like to target them into my wife's sunroom where the Dynaudio monitors sit relatively unobtrusively today

Mapman,concerning the WAF,the SQ H-10 horn speakers are fairly compact.Here is a review of their larger brother,the H-15:

Also I have heard several of the single driver Omega models.While the large stand mount Superhemps were my favorite,their small bookshelf and floorstand speakers were also quite good!
