Best high-efficiency speaker for Unison S6 EL34-based integrated


Hello audio junkies.

I've been running my 35w Unison Research S6 integrated amp with a classic pair of Proac Response 2.5, but have come to the conclusion the the Unison doesn't have enough juice to get the Proacs to sing. I've been doing some research on higher-efficiency speaker brands that may be a better match for the amp, like WLM, Tannoy, Zu, Living Voice, etc. Functionally, my room is 13" x 30" and I need to fire the speakers across the short dimension, positioned about 7' apart on either side of fireplace. Would like to find something that would charge the room with bass and image well.

Any recommendations for me? Can be modern or vintage.

Thanks,
-Bob R

There's a pair of high efficiency Heco Direkt listed now for 2300.00.  They received an outstanding review in the U.K. magazine Hi Fi Choice.  No personal experience however and no relation to the seller.
The Heco I suggested is similar to the Devore 0/96, a German version if you will although the styling is more art deco.  At the 2300.00 used price it is way under what a used 0/96 sells for.
