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.

Why 92dB?

You’re better off choosing a speaker by how it sounds in your room rather than any spec. 

IME, most speakers with over 90dB sensitivity have significant drawbacks in other areas, such as low maximum output or very truncated bass extension. 

The Fritz speakers are a pretty easy load for most amps and your room is fairly small. 

It's amazing that so many people, some of them supposedly audiophiles, don't grasp that speaker sensitivity is simply how loud they'll play with 1 watt of power. Also, 91-92 is considered the low end of high sensitivity. Look it up.

94dB, Living Voice start at about that price - an extremely engaging sound that makes me want to keep listening. No idea of the cost in the USA but that are well worth a try if you can. As ever, your taste, your equipment, your room.
