Hi Undertow,
Without significant boundary reinforcement (like corner loading), no bookshelf-sized speaker is going to give you 95 dB/1 watt and an honest -3 dB "deep into the 30 Hz range".
A very low damping factor tube amp will get you closer assuming it's a good match for the speakers, but still won't get you all the way there.
Imho the cold, harsh reality is that you'll have to juggle tradeoffs. Something's gotta give.
