Volume differences are generally perceived as being better. My perceptions may be “colored” by difficulty in volume matching during the comparison. I have both pairs on the same Dialogue - I just tricked it by configuring them as stereo pairs in different rooms. Unfortunately when I transfer the source to the “other room” the volume is not matched and I must adjust it. This takes time and attention and distracts, making the comparison difficult. It’s also possible that what I’m perceiving as a more forward midrange is actually the tweeter.
Interesting that 70 translates to O dB. I had actually noticed with the Elevates that in trying to push the upper limits, I noticed very little additional volume beyond 70. In fact, the dynamic range seemed to compress as if the ceiling remained fixed.
I’ll try to log some more time with them this week and report back.
