What are some dymanic driver/non-horn speakers that have that "jump" factor?
Hello,
I guess I'm curious to see to what brands have Horn like life/jump/presence but, are your standard dynamic driver speaker.
Devore Fidelity and Tekton Design were names mentioned to me but, wanted to ask around to see if there are others.

Re: What are some dymanic driver/non-horn speakers that have that "jump" factor?
Most horns use dynamic drives. What you are most likely trying to describe, are "direct radiator" speakers, i.e. non-horn loaded "naked" drivers like most dome tweeters, mids, etc...with higher sensitivity. Those exist. However, horn loading doesn't just raise sensitivity, it controls directvity, so the polar pattern/off axis is markedly different from the uncontrolled "naked" direct radiator drivers. This narrowed radiation vs wider has audible consequences, including all the audiophile verbiage like "jump" etc.
As a side note, many audiophile speaker sensitivity "specs" are blatant lies, for the intended uncritical easily convinced audience. Stereophile et al measurements reveal this on a consistent basis, though that has, understandably, zero effect.
cheers,
AJ

Re: What are some dymanic driver/non-horn speakers that have that "jump" factor?
Zero effect on what? People's purchasing decisions? Another factor is that even though a speaker can meet it's stated sensitivity as confirmed by JA's measurements, it can obscure the fact that the speaker is very hard to drive due to its average low impedance and sometimes difficult phase angles.

Re: What are some dymanic driver/non-horn speakers that have that "jump" factor?
Horns and high sensitivity normally go hand in hand. If you have a high sensitivity speaker that is an easy load for an amp to drive, your speakers jump to life very quickly at very low power. The inverse of that are speakers with low sensitivity and present a difficult load to the amplifier which results in having to crank the volume to bring your speakers to life.

Re: What are some dymanic driver/non-horn speakers that have that "jump" factor?
Thank you for starting this thread. That jump factor is addictive and I am looking for similar in my next speaker - so much so that I'm hoping to fly down to Mike's early next year to hear some avantgardes and see if they are the bees knees for me.
One of the earlier comments mentioned magico m series. can anyone expand on this - i have the s5mk2 and there is some jump for sure but only when i crank the volume (so i do!), not sure if i noticed more on the m series or not but i have never heard the m series in my room and my system so apple-to-apples comparison is hard.
if one wants to extract extra jump from their current speakers, i found that lowering the noise floor helps the most and then adequate amplification. in my case the following changes really brought it out for me: i plugged everything into a torus avr unit which really brought down the noise floor, then - most surprisingly - a change in music server allowed for another reduction in noise floor and increase in resolution...there was a new sense of realism, finally a more powerful amp helped which also surprised me as i didn't think my speakers needed more power. maybe this comes back to the earlier comments about sensitivity ratings on paper vs. in room but from what i've read the mk2 series doesnt have too many nasty phase angles but the m series does seem to be higher sensitivity.

Re: What are some dymanic driver/non-horn speakers that have that "jump" factor?
Yes, well I'm looking for vivid, dynamics and life in a Cone (have to watch my words with AJ on this thread; lol) speaker.
Something that I don't have to crack the volume for it come alive.
I know there probably isn't one ideal speaker but, just looking to what what other members recommend.
Perhaps I should consider horns?
But, I didn't think they would be a me a good match for my electronics (Spectral)
I didn't want to swap both.
I'm considering either swapping the loudspeaker but, keeping electronics OR
Upgrading to Monoblock amps from Stereo and keep existing speakers.

Re: What are some dymanic driver/non-horn speakers that have that "jump" factor?
Next to having had regular exposure to the M Project, I have heard stunning, extraordinary dynamics on piano and orchestral music from the Q3.
Things always depend on the entire system context and speaker set-up.
The perceived dynamics of Magico speakers are very set-up dependent, whereas my own Reference 3A monitors sound boldly vivid and dynamic almost regardless of where you position them in the room.Simaudio Moon Neo 260 DT CD Transport / MIT SL-Matrix Plus AES/EBU digital cable / Schiit Yggdrasil Analog 2 DAC / Octave HP 700 preamp / Octave RE 320 stereo amp with Super Black Box / Reference 3A Reflector monitors on Sound Anchors Signature Stands / dual JL Audio Fathom 112 v2 subwoofers on ASC SubTraps / ZenWave Audio D4 and SMSG cables / Acoustic treatment: tube traps, Tri-panels, window plugs, ceiling diffusers (all ASC), large absorbing panels (Acoustics First), diverse carpets chosen for acoustic properties: wool, polypropylene basket-weave

Re: What are some dymanic driver/non-horn speakers that have that "jump" factor?
You should consider whatever sounds best to you, regardless of whether horn, direct radiator, panel, etc.
At low volume. That's not a terribly difficult scenario to recreate demo wise, at home, dealer, show, etc.
Not sure what model Spectral, but you most likely have far more than enough power to recreate low volumes, regardless of speaker type and sensitivity.
Your ears, like every other human (regardless of beliefs), follows equal loudness contours, which means you hear things differently at low volumes, vs mid or high volumes. What audiophiles often seek, since they shun things like tone and worse, "loudness" controls (which were once popular when common sense prevailed), are speakers with built in loudness curves.
I.e., tilted up bass and treble native response. That will definitely sound better at low volume! Maybe not so much at mid-high. YMMV.
Side note, I've exhibited dozens of audio shows, meets, etc.
I'd guesstimate 1 in 1000 audiophile attendee actually bring their own tracks to listen and evaluate systems (including loudspeakers) with. These are the very same folks asking questions like yours here.
Somehow they are able to determine certain attributes when there are 50+ variables, unfamiliar equipment, connections, power, sources, rooms, etc, etc....with unfamiliar tracks.
IOW, the one constant/reference: how particular very familiar tracks sound to you at home, say at low volume, on ones own system, are not used, in totally unfamiliar environment evals. Go figure.
Good luck with your search.
cheers,
AJ

Re: What are some dymanic driver/non-horn speakers that have that "jump" factor?
To follow up on my message yesterday and some of the subsequent posts about magicos...we must keep in mind that if the recording doesn't have the dynamic range there won't be much jump to speak of anyways. When the recording calls for it the magicos can show the dynamic range vs. recordings that are victims of the loudness wars. However, as much as I love these speakers this is one of their weaker points comparatively...or rather, it takes alot of class a power to coax that snap out of them. An expensive endeavor no matter how you cut it.

Re: What are some dymanic driver/non-horn speakers that have that "jump" factor?
I had some 93.5 db ef speakers that did have some mid horn color, but drum kits played back on those speakers was really impressive. the dynamics, slam, and presence outweighed their shortcomings and I used them for 25 years. They were also very good low volume speakers.

Re: What are some dymanic driver/non-horn speakers that have that "jump" factor?
The horn membrane moves nanometers and produces the most dynamic sound. I just don’t think any traditional box speaker can compete in this one area. What is your opposition to horn speakers? I would encourage you to listen to some Avantgarde’s. Duo XD or above preferably.

Coax
Midrange acts as the horn for tweeter. Some older designs had similar complaints.
