I want a quality pair of speakers, but am only interested in low to moderate volume listening. (No HT...music only).

I know the M80s will play quite loud, but how do they sound at low volumes...chamber music, mood music, music to relax by?

I have auditioned the Paradigm Ref. 80 and 100, and they sound great...until you turn the volume down. Then they just sort of wimp out...lose most of their robustness and detail.

I am using a Denon 5802, so have no problem there.

I have also heard B&W and Klipsch...same response.

Someone suggested I would be happier with a pair of electrostatics for quality low volume listening.

Axiom's 30 day trial sounds good before I spend the $$$ on a pair of electrostats.

Comments and suggestions are appreciated.
