Take a look at Welborn Labs recommendations for speaker and tube amp matching at: http://www.welbornelabs.com/recomendspeaks.htm There you will see "minimum recommendations for speaker sensitivity are as follows:"
3 watts or less - 94dB minimum sensitivity
8 watts - 90dB minimum sensitivity
15 watts - 88dB minimum sensitivity
25 watts - 86dB minimum sensitivity
"These are general guidelines and can vary by plus or minus 2dB depending upon the impedance of the speaker, the type of music listened to, the size of the listening room and how loud you like to listen to your music." They walk you through some examples.
The speakers that they recommend are "either very high efficiency or medium efficiency with relatively benign impedances." You might want to look into this with regard to your speakers.
Anyway, I think Welborn Labs is a great place to start. Good luck.
