    Default Efficient Speakers

    Can anyone provide the name of a speaker (or a list), that can be driven by a Soundstage One Integrated Hybrid Tube Amp (25 wpc - Chinese knock-off)?

    Consider vintage speakers. Vintage JBLs or Advents, something from the 70s/early 80s.

    Large Advents still sound great compared to today's speakers.

    DECware also makes really good super high sensitivity speakers.

    Don't know about the Advents......they are not very efficient since they are acoustic suspension design. I've never seen and Advent that wasn't a bit power hungry.

    If you are looking for Polk any of the vintage Monitor line 5, 7, 10's would mate nicely.

    Pretty much anything by Silverline Audio.
    Or if you have about a 100k floating around, an Acapella Excalibur might fit the bill at a sensitivity of 100db:D
