Speakers for low power amps?


Hi, I am looking for suggestions for a high efficiency speaker. I am considering going to a low power SET setup. I really know nothing about it but I have always wanted to try out the low power amps. I figured I should start with speakers. What should I look for in speakers, just high DB rating? My room is about 14' x 22'. Where I live I have no stores that carry high end audio, so I will have to travel to hear anything. Any opinions?

Here is A link from wellborn labs with a list of recommended speakers for SE Amps. I have owned every Klipsch, and still have highly modifided lascalas, (Heritage series) speakers. they work well with se amps.I like them because you could listen at low listening levels and with just a few watts, they have slam.I have a highly modifided Edgarhorn system 80 that I use mainly. It is not as efficient as Klipsh but has a more neutral midrange, and a better midbass, with a good sub woofer. I get good sound for the type music I like (jazz, rock, r&b, and easy listning). That is an important factor. Certain speakers do better with certain types of music.Take that into consideration.

Good luck
