I have a Dynaco SCA35 which has EL84s in ultraliniar nad puts out about 10 watts per channel. I listen to classical and you need high efficency to get it to sound anything like an orchestra.

Sansui SP2000 speakers worked suprisingly well but there is not a lot of base below 60hz. I would stick with high efficency speakers from the tube eara. JBL, Electrovoice and Jensen have some nice offerings. Warfdale speakres (W60 or W90) also sound quite good with Jaz or classical. The W90's would be my pick of the Warfdales if you have the room. You might also want a supertweeter with them. The sand-filled baffels are qute effective.

JBL Lancer 77's sounded quite good with jazz and classical when I had them. I normally do not like passive radiators but the base on the Lancers sounded great.

Note that I am a vintage collector and own or have owned everything I suggested.
