With very efficient speakers,
there are a few McIntosh Pre-amps with enough power to drive speakers directly.
This McIntosh C26 Pre-amp has a 10wpc amp, main and/or remote speaker terminals and face mounted push button selectors for those outputs. It could drive the Klipsch speakers directly.
One advantage is of course sending pre-amp out to an amp for main speakers, and driving a set of efficient remote speakers directly from the C26.
In any case, it is a terrific preamp, here's a listing that shows it well.
