In reply to Mel Jove. In my original post, I accidentally inverted the watts and decibels in the efficiency rating figure. It now is and should have been "85 dB/watt", which, in my experience, is a reasonable load to drive with just about any amp or even a receiver. My Magneplanars, on the other hand, are rated at about 80 dB/watt, and are legendarily difficult to drive.

Only 30 inches tall and 10 inches deep? Perfect for the cats to jump up on and sit on.

In reply to Mel Jove. 90 and above is what I'd call 'efficient'. 85 is borderline inefficient.

"The Spendor A2s are also a fairly efficient design, and are rated at 85w/dB..." Isn't a rating in the mid-eighties considered fairly INefficient? Efficient being from mid-nineties to a hundred plus?
