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

RE: With that sort of efficiency you'll want 30 watts at least.

I am not so sure - I run Audio Note E speakers which are lower in sensitivity ratings, and they are ALL fine with 7 watts.

And since AN has sold massively well compared to most high-end audio brands to customers who used to own high power amps there seems to not be too much issue there.

Albeit they are generally designed for medium sized spaces, not the sort of space a large horn might occupy.

Im my space though, a recent 100 watt Class A ampifier offered no noticeable power adavantage (audibly) on any music over my 8 watts 2a3 parallel Single Ended amplifiers. And my speakers are not as sensitive as the OP's.
