Hi Burwoodc.
The suggestions you got to run high efficiency speakers is very good advise.
That being said, in the meantime, you still may get enjoyment out of your smallish OPTs with lower efficiency speakers.
Just my opinion, but I would rather do that then run separate subs.
I have used a ~5 watt per channel amp (with small OPTs) with 92db (medium-low efficiency) for quite some time and while it didn't have the authority of say a Fisher 400 at higher volumes, it was a nicer setup all round when run within it's limits.

Thanks for your reply!For the record I have changed my mind on the smallish OPT and decided to run beefier OPT from a heath aa-1oo. In a fisher sa-100 clone circuit.
Some specific speaker recommendations would be appreciated.

Consider something from the Altec 604 lineup. Some people use subs with these, some don't.
The earlier versions benefit from subs more so then the later versions.
