A high eff system generally means some design specifics. While single-driver systems do exist, these are operated by running the driver in breakup. The resultant peaky response is especially noticeable on a resonant instrument with high frequency content, as glare or sizzle.
So we go to a more typical system- multiway. With high eff, you have a minimum of damping, so high eff mids and such tend to have a lot of breakup above their intended frequencies, leading to 3 and 4 way systems to cross far enough out of these bands. The more complex a system is, the harder it is to get all the crossovers right, and an instrument that plays over such a wide range, like Piano, shows any crossover mismatch very effectively.
None of these are absolutes, however, and piano CAN be done very well on a high eff. system indeed.
Bass is supposed to sound big. 6.5" is not a woofer size.
