looking for a more efficient speaker.....


some thing with a higher then my current rated 86 alon IV.  something more easier to drive.  i love the way the sound but i have to drive them at 1-2 oclock to get the best sound and then you start to hear the strain.   let me know, i dont have big pockets so keep that in mind, plus i like floor standing types.

 a more efficient speaker is were i may have to go.

Just a thought:

Even though they are different from your Alon IV maybe try a pair of JBLs like the ones below:  Sensitivity 93dB @ 1watt 8 Ohm's 2 meters efficiency is 1.7%. If you can find an early pair (1981-1984) they have ALNICO midrange Compression drivers model #2421A. FWIW: I previously owned JBL 4430's, I currently own JBL 4435's.
