Monitor speakers for Tube integrated?

Hi,

I'm relative new to tube and I just bought a Fatman iTube setup for my office. It's rated at 15w/c so I'm pretty sure I'm limited to a small selection. Originally, i was looking at the B&W 601S3 but their 88db sensitivity worried me. I need your recommendation for a $300/pair of used or new monitor speakers. TIA.

Sacman, fwiw the Reynaud speakers I used to own (Trentes) are very easy to drive (despite their 88db rating) my 18 wpc vacuum tube Soro drove them to rockin levels with ease so I recommended their baby brother the Twins - admittedly at $125 over what you stated. fwiw the Trentes are superbly musical speakers, often favored over Spendor, Harbeth and other popular choices. the Twins are supposed to give you a fair amount of the Trentes magic so I recommended them. Cleanedup has some good points

good luck
