Best speaker for small 12x14 room 50 WPC tube amp

there is no bets speaker, but i urge you to look into an eminent technology design with planar magnetic tweeter.

i can't say you will like it, but it costs around $900, and in a small room, 50 watts is probably sufficient.

move them away from the wall to get depth. you may want to augment the bass response.

Which amp are you using, and what's your budget?

I run a pair of modified (DeanG crossovers) Heresys with my EL84 SET amp. I have them in corners of a 13.5' x 13' room on 13" stands and towed in at 45 degrees. They sound great and you don't even know they are playing. Imaging and soundstaging is excellent. But for my tastes they still don't put out enough bass. I have to use a subwoofer with them to get that low bass.

In my 24' x 16' bedroom I am using a pair of KEF C75s with my 60 watt EL34 PP amp. These speakers do bass very well. They remind me of Heresys but with bass. They are suprisingly small and don't mind being close to walls. They are also cheap (usually in the low $200 range). They also play loud, like the Heresys, if that is important to you.

Good luck with your search.

What would be a good sub to use in small room? The Klipsch reference line is really expensive. They have all different sizes and I do not know anything about these.
