As my next power amp will be the Pass XA30.5, I need a pair of speakers that are both 8 ohm impedance, have >87db sensitivity and priced in the $6K to $8.5K range-not too easy to come by in these pages. Most importantly, the speakers need to be heard by trusted, discerning ears-hopefully driving them with modestly powerful Class A power amps-and rigorously benched tested by Mr. Atkinson. To that end, please consider evaluating the Silverline Reference 17/17.5 and Sonatina MK4, the Devore Orang O/93 and the Tannoy Turnberry SE. Also, those models by Tonian Acoustics, Trenner & Friedl, Tyler Acoustics and WLM Audio models all costing around $7.5K/pair. Last, but not least, please review the Rythmik F12G subwoofer. A pair of these particular subs with a pair of the best of the above?
