The Reference 3A DeCapo is generally considered to be a very good monitor for someone wanting high-ish efficiency. They are 93 db eff. and are very easy to drive. I've powered mine with as little as 1.5W of 45 SET tube amp power. I've also driven them with an 5 watt 2A3 SET, 30 and 40 watt P-P tube amps, a 40 watt solid state "chip" amp and a 170 watt HT receiver.

The DeCapos also have very good bass for a monitor. The bass extends down into the low 40s and is very articulate.

Enjoy,

Markeetaux,

My Reference 3A DeCapos work very well with a 5 watt/ch. 2A3 tube amp and have more volume than I can use in my small-medium sized room. They are very easy to drive with a simple crossover and 93db eff.

Enjoy,
