I am looking for some new speakers to upgrade from the Klipsch CF-2. I am having a hard time finding speakers with very high efficiency rates like the CF-2. Any recommendations?

Best high efficiency speakers?

The Klipsch Cornwall III has 102 db/watt sensitivity. They are excellent; far better-sounding than the CF-2.
That is what I would recommend.
Music Direct is selling them for $4398/pair, which is a big discount from the list price.

I second the Cornwall’s they
I second the Cornwall’s they are some of the best speakers out there - if your budget is half that another good choice is Klipsch Heresy (12 inch instead of 15 inch woofer), but sounds wonderful with a tube amp of say 20 to 35 watts.

Cornwall III
Looks great, I am planning on getting the MF M5si for the CF-2 until I get the new speakers later on. I use them outdoors so the high sensitivity is important. It says the max output is 119db, but my math says around 122db instead at a continuous level. Why is this? And the 50 extra watts are not going to damage the speaker going into peaks that high, correct?

Klipschhorn
After doing some research, the Klipschhorn looked like a very good choice, even with the higher price tag than the Cornwall. What speaker will I find more value?

The Klipschorn will only work properly when placed in the corners of a large rectangular room. Before considering them, be certain that you will be able to place them corrctly.
