speakers with a "smooth" impedance curve

I had started a thread asking about speakers that are well designed for tube amps (I am currently using a Ming Da MC 34AB with 8 EL34 power tubes 75 wt/ch ultralinear; 40 wt/ch Class A).
There has been a consistent recommendation for efficient speakers with a "smooth impedance curve".

Any recommendations out there for some tower speakers in the less than $5000 price range with smooth impedance curves that are "tube friendly"?

Duke, I wasn't implying that your systems use filters, your systems sound great and I know you pay a LOT of attention to all the details.

Thanks for the compliment on my crossovers, Guy who does the final crossover work is a true genius and I'm fortunate to have worked with him for all these years.
see you at RMAF

as usual I agree with Duke. I'd just add that when a crossover is designed for a speaker to have a smooth impedance curve this can be done without using any filters or extra components, it just takes a lot more time etc., some companies do this some don't. Mine are built and tested using solid state amps, but smooth is smooth and the real difference between the SS and tube amps is what impedance range they like to see, both work best with a smooth load.
