Single Ended Triodes (SETs), the ultimate tube lovers dream.

RE: Looking for SET amp for my Altec speakers

The strapped pentodes will do a decent job at 2 watts with the efficiency you're working with. The 2a3 approach will let more magic out using a comparably thought out design and build. I've implemented both with good results. If you've done neither to date, and have a budget, start with Deckert's offering. my 2 cents. The EL84's and their pentode brothers can sound fine for the money. Alos, a well designed and built SEP will surprise with a good system match.
