30 Watts of class A power: What Speakers are you using and suggesting?


My recent amp has led me to want to downsize my setup. My Sophia II’s can be handled by the amp but I wonder what would I look at if I downsized the speakers to prepare for a life less crowded by heavy equipment. NOTE: The amp inspires me to believe I am hearing the very best music of my life < 70 watts.

Sharing your amplifier and specifications will help members determine 'fit' with prospective speakers.
An obscure brand that no longer is in business.  They are bookshelf size called Hyperion 585s.  Power is supplied by a Prima Luna Prologue 5 currently using Gold Lion KT-77s. Very easy to achieve loud volumes with no audible distortion.
If you can power Sophias,  you know you really don't need that much power.  You can look at almost any medium size Cone type speaker system.  The company should tell you if you're way off  in terms of power.
What price range?
Devore or Audio Note speakers; 8 ohms nominal and very efficient.


One of the amps I run is a First Watt F5. The speakers I have paired with are, Nola Boxer 2's, Hornshoppe Great Horned Heils,Graham Chartwell LS3/5's,Spendor S3/5's,and The Betsy OB's. All driven successfully. At least to my ears.
