RE: Hi-eff doing justice to piano reproduction?

24.20.16.114

My speakers,which are true single-driver, are the best I have ever heard at reproducing piano.
I know I am missing the very bottom and even the very top of the spectrum(although the treble limitations are less meaningful or significant than the bass limitations),but I don't miss anything when listening to them.In fact,as I said,these speakers reproduce the sense of a piano more completely and more faithfully to me,at least subjectively,than my 2-way horn system with active woofer modules ever did.Ditto for the fancy french 2 and 1/2 way average sensitivity speakers plus sub which I had before the horns.I tried the horn'n sub system in 4 different rooms with about 5 different amps,but it never matched what the single drivers do in the one and only room I have ever used them and with the one amp I have used.

I think it must have something to do with the completeness and coherence and seamlessness of that very,very broad middle range.There really isn't much that they don't cover.And what they do miss at the extremes seems to be much less important than the middle,which no other speakers I have ever heard are anywhere near as good at.
But that doesn't mean it is a prescription for any and all single drivers.
Just the really good ones.
Like mine.
