Best speakers for 2A3 SET amplifier?

Excellent string, folks. I have learned a lot from all of the above, so thought I would ask a question. I don't mean to change the subject, since this thread is very enlightening, so ignore this post if you want. However, I intend to purchase the Electronics Audio Supply SE1, which I understand works with 300B and 2A3 tubes, at about 7 watts. For other times/music I have your typical arc-welder solid state job. Question then is a speaker that will do justice to both, with the least (but necessary) compromises. Currently auditioning the Soliloquy 5.3 and Triangle Antal xs (can you tell my desired price range is just under US$2,000?). Anybody listened to both, and any comments on strategy for a neophyte?

money no object ? www.carfrae.com and avantgarde....they use lowthers. If you are on the the DIY kind. Look up lowthers on the web and you will be surprised with most companies using their drive unit and they support the DIY community too. An interesting site is bdesign

Personnely I have tried the Klipschorn with a Cary CAD2A3SE.
at maxi of 5 watts was a knock out.The best sound was using a Mac275 had very good bass extension.Mids and highs was very close to the SET 2A3.The Advangarde Uno was good on highs but the Mids/low end had a hole in the middle. I think it seems that the active bass end was not matched.
What ever you decide your ears are the final judgement but getting information narrows down your search for the best.
Have fun.

the soliloquy SM2A3 was designed to work low power SET amps. It is outstanding in this regard.

I do not know if you are still reading this thread of not, but here it goes. I decided to make myself a pair of Voigt Pipes, as it was seen in a website. Materials for the cabinets might have cost me about $100 and the drivers, a pair of Fostex 208Sigmas went for about $350. After all the work, which is more a matter of space and sawdust, also be a little proficient with electric tools, I had the speaker set up. The efficiency with these drivers is about 97db if a little more, but the sound that you get is veritable to something that can easily run you about 3 to 4K. Very detailed, very smooth, quick, although there is not a great deal with bass, but then, you can add one of these folded horn subs from DECWARE, the guys who make the ZEN amp. I think there is a lot you can get with a premade speaker, but making it, and having it sound like heaven with a couple hundred dollars is not all that bad.
