High efficiency speakers for home theater?

Any recommendations for a speaker system for a home theater that are high in efficiency? I have two Rogue 88 amplifiers and would buy a third for the necessary channels. I'd like to run in triode but could switch to ultralinear for movies. Very large horn speakers are out of the question. Any help would be appreciated. Obviously prefer matching speakers from same manufacturer.

Soliloquys will rock out with very little power. And are great for music as well.

Good Luck!

Thanks. I am looking to spend 3-4k for the five speaker system. I already have a sub(REL) so that isn't necessay.

Once again, the Von Schweikert at full retail is:
VR2 = $2500.
VR1 = $1000.
LCR = $750.

Most dealers will give a discount for a package system.
Good Luck

There is one other speaker line with high effiency that I should have included on my list above: the Legacy Audio line. Their Focus 20/20 is quite efficient (rated at 96db sensitivity, as I recall), and a very fine speaker. I had my first chance to hear the 20/20 (and their much larger brother, The Whisper) about 2 months, and I was very impressed. Legacy is building some fine speakers (if you don't mind their rather clunky styling).
