Speaker match for 75 watt Tenor amps

I'm getting very close to purchasing a pair of
Tenor amps and would like some opinions on speaker
choices. Top contenders so far; Verity Parsifal
encores and Coincidents. I'm pretty sold on the
Verity ,but interested in other peoples opinions.

Kana813 is right: find the speaker first.

I am so proud to have participated in the most stupid thread on this forum. I especially enjoyed Natalie's advice to "stay as far away from a Horn as is humanly possible." I own Lammhorns and have heard a variety of horns in a variety of systems. To state that all they are good for is midrange is ridiculous.

Tireguy: Tim- I didn't mean to imply that any of the speakers mentioned were poorly designed. I just think it's better to select your speakers first.

Based on your report, I'm sure the Tenor OTL amps sound great.

I'd love to have a pair, but their cherry wood bases wouldn't match my koa speakers and for $20K I can buy
a new Miata.

Aloha.

Sax, you can drive to happiness HUNDREDS of speakers, expensive or otherwise, with yr amps. If yr moniker is representative of taste, then mikelavigne has made a point. If not... the list is long & my knowledge too restricted.
With all due respect to all others, of course! Cheers

Kana813- Very true a miata may very well offer more of a thrill for the money- those are amazingly fun little cars, for the money to fun ratio they can't be beat when the sun is up :)
