VANDERSTEEN 2C or CABASSE 321 M3 question

I am moving and have too many speakers.

I don't know which pair to keep. (they both sound good.)

appreciate your input ....Help me decide .

ALSO...does anyone have the Specs on the Cabasse M3 ?

I know they are 8 OHM's but what is the db sensitivity ?

I would like to use low power tube amps on the Cabasse.

thank you

I have a feeling that the Cabasse’s, while at 94 db efficient probably go well below 8 ohms. Klipsch’s sound great on low powered SE tube amps. The 5/15 wpc Antique Sound Lab MG15siDT, if you can find one, might be a great low powered choice with the Cabasse’s or a PP EL84 amp that would give you approx 15-20 wpc.

I don’t know how loud you listen or how big your room is but be careful. Tube amps clip much nicer than SS amps and are harder to detect that they are clipping. Could ruin your speakers if not careful. It might sound better and be safer using the 4 ohm setting? I would get other opinions on this though.
