Help Choosing Speakers

I am looking to find a nice pair of speakers that will work well in a relatively small dedicated listening room. My setup is 100% analog, tube amp, turntable, phono pre. I am trying to keep a minimalist approach.

Turntable: Thorens TD-150
Phono Pre: AudioResearch PH3
Amp: Decware MiniTorii
Speakers: DIY MarkAudio A12P in SuperPensil

Room Dimensions: 11' W x 12' 4" L x 10' H

So far I have been looking around at a lot of options and while I don't want to limit myself to 94 dB+ efficient speakers. I would like to be able to keep my Decware MiniTorii in place if possible.

LegacyAudio Signature SE is top on my list, little bit more than I wanted to spend, but this is a lifetime purchase. I have also looked at SalkSound Veracity ST but I am concerned about the Decware amps being able to push those. I have also looked at the Decware HR-1s which look impressive.

Of course its difficult to buy speakers without hearing them, any other recommendations/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Also if anyone has heard the Legacy Audio Signatures with a Decware amplifier and has any details, that would be spectacular.

Thanks,

Ron

hifiron, I know that the Legacy Signature SE's would serve you well, but if you are afraid that the room is to small maybe you could look at the Studio HD's or the new Calibre from Legacy. If you feel that you needed more bass then add one of Legacy's sub woofers to the mix.

It's hard to beat the Legacy line, I spent over a year researching, listening, and traveling before I decided, and now I have a set of Focus SE's and a set of Studio HD's.

Doug, and Bill (and Victoria, Bill's daughter) are great people and will take the time to answer questions for you.
