Raven 20 watt needs Speakers

I have a Raven 20 watt tube amp and enjoying the sounds over solid state Marantz I owned.
Using Definitive Techogoly BP 8080 st speakers and believe I want to leave
Bi Polar world of speakers after having them 28 yrs (Had Mirage M-5 for 28 yrs ) .

So my room size 27'x14'x8'ceilings with hard wood floors and just put rubber pads under my speakers and that did get rid of floor vibration allowing speakers to have little more detail .

So looking for decent quality speakers and leading towards Focal Aria 936 or 948 but see watts rated 50 min on them and Raven at 20 wpc...
Any one use these on lower watt amp and get good results ??
Or any speaker with quality sound you would recommend for my room size ??

After doing more research I am wondering if I should either stay with Definitive Technology  and go with STL speakers or Golden Ear.. I was trying to get away from powered woofers but with my low watt amp wonder?????
Any thoughts of you who have low powered tubes???

Have you spoke with Raven Audio? 
He's a straight shooter, and not just cause he's a Texan 😉

That amp would work well with a single driver horn. Not sure of your budget but take a look at Charney audio. I have a pair I was ginna use in a second system but unfortunately that isn't gonna happen right now.

Might provide plenty of bass with your amp and if not maybe add a sub or two down the road?
