RE: Move to a system that sound better at moderate volumes?

I think your improvement when switching to "balanced" has to do with the fact that in most cases "balanced" connections via balanced gear "play louder" than single ended.

Regarding your issue of wanting to play it softer yet still hear all the MUSIC (detail/dynamics/bass) try nearfield listening of 4-6 ft from the speakers (may require toe-in adjustment)

If that doesn't do it, I know some speakers that are the best (I have heard) for lower level listening.
