BEST monitor speaker with a 90db senitivity rating

The Reference 3A DeCapo is generally considered to be a very good monitor for someone wanting high-ish efficiency. They are 93 db eff. and are very easy to drive. I've powered mine with as little as 1.5W of 45 SET tube amp power. I've also driven them with an 5 watt 2A3 SET, 30 and 40 watt P-P tube amps, a 40 watt solid state "chip" amp and a 170 watt HT receiver.

The DeCapos also have very good bass for a monitor. The bass extends down into the low 40s and is very articulate.

Enjoy,

Agree with Reubent, I was going to post the same monitor.

Silverline SR-17. I believe the current version is rated at 90db. If it is anything like the previous versions (I've owned versions I, II, and (currently) III) it should be on your short list. The previous versions, btw, are rated at 89db, just short of your mark.
