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

bluemike,

No but I remember them fondly, I have my Audio Note kit 3 speakers in the corners not in the middle of the room like the Trentes demand. I find even with the Audio Note amp the Trentes tended to sound better - the Kit 3 is more picky of input source...

all the best

Trelja,

The Trentes are supremly musical and not the slightest bit forward or bright and also extremely forgiving and detailed beyond belief. They offer a very well balanced sound going down to about 45 hz and ignore their 88db rating they lit up with my 18 wpc Soro SE amp.

Bluemike,

I have not heard of the Tonian speakers but all the best to you and what you land with... I may finally be settling down on my stereo adventures but find it hard to give up the 'gon' :)
