High impedance Speakers

I've read here and there about the benefits of using speakers with high impedances, especially with low power tube amps, but there don't seem to be a lot of them out there. I've identified a few:

Coincident Victory, SuperEclipse, TotalEclipse: all 14 ohms
Coincident TotalVictory: 10 ohms
Omega TS33: switchable 4 ohms/16 ohms
Zu Cable Druids: 12 ohms

Can anyone add to this list?

How much do the Tonians cost? There seems to be very little info on the web about them.

I also found the Moth Cicada, 12 ohms.

Their 3 BPC is switchable 4/16 ohms (in dipole), and 8 ohms in monopole operation.

The Omega 3BPC, that is.

The Tonian speakers mentioned above use the 16 ohm PHY-HP drivers, which are also used in speakers from Musical Affairs, Auditorium 23 (Solovox), and Ocellia (Kedros). All are quite expensive. Are there any other speakers that use these drivers?
