Hi Sensitivity Speakers for SE Triodes


I'm looking for speakers which mate well with SE Triode amps. I'd like the speakers to be reference quality; however, I'm not willing to spend over $6000 (used) or around $8000 (new). I'm currently using Avalon Eclipse speakers which I love, but they are too insensitive and difficult to drive (86dB sensitive, 6ohm nom, 5.5ohm min, but fairly complex phase angle) for experimentation with SE triodes. I listen to orchestral, jazz, blues, and some rock/pop so the speakers need to be fairly sensitive to mate with Cary 805C's or some of the 15-20 watt SE Triodes I'm considering. Thanks,

I'm considering SE Triodes from 10 watts to the 50 watt Cary 805C. Lshreve, can you use a 2A3 SET on the Soliloquy's? They're only 90dB sensitive, although 8ohm impedance. Thanks
