looking for best speakers to match with small 25w


Hello,

Looking for the best speakers to match a 25watt tube amplifier.
Price up to $4000 new or used.

Looking for speed, resolution and tight/fast bottom end.
Do not like forward sounding speakers so do speak.
Looks are important so the finish plays a small role.
Any suggestions please...........
40Hz give or take is enough for me, not a 20Hz guy.
Must be efficient to do the trick.

If there are any questions, please feel free to ask

Thank you

Green Mountain Audio Callisto fits your question perfectly. I have driven them with an AES Superamp with 15 watts and now drive them with a Cary Rocket 88R with 30 watts in triode. The Rocket is 10 times the amp in sound quality and speed, but the Callisto sings with both. First order crossover with 90-91 db effeciency and the most satifying speaker I have owned in 30 years. See the 6 moons review:
