A list of efficient speakers at ~$5K a pair.


Specifically I am searching for those speakers possessing a relatively flat 8ohm impedance curve and a true (8ohm) 92db sensitivity that are at a cost of $5000 USD.

I currently own Fritz Carbon 7s SE  MK2.

As much as I admire Aric’s electronics, his speakers are butt ugly.  I’m more about sound than aesthetics, but even I have my limits and I couldn’t look at those things in my listening room. 

I am searching for speakers that would make a lesser demand on a power amplifier than that of my Fritz speakers, which I do consider an easy load.

Just out of curiosity, why?  Are you sensing your amp is straining or do you think the speakers aren’t fully opening up?  Your room is small the Fritz speakers aren’t a tough load so I’m wondering.  What amp are you using?

The Reference 3a mm de Capo meets those specs, and they are excellent performers.  If you’re open to used you could step up to the Taksim tower model.  Best of luck.
