Is that because of the sensitivity difference between the two types of speakers (normally anyway)? Remember though some direct radiator speakers like the Wilson Watt/puppy are about 93 db sensitive (I have a friend with the original X1 that is 95 db/watt). Several speakers from Cabasse and Focal are also well above 90db/watt making 10 watts in a moderate room (think 30m2 or less) more than sufficient for all but the most headbanging affairs. I am getting very good results with my 87 db/watt (equivalent sensitivity) 2.4 meter tall eletrostats. My room is also not very large (25m2).In big American homes obviously if the room is 70 or 80m2 and you sit 6 meters away more power will be needed than a SET can provide unless you are using horns.
