Single Ended Triodes (SETs), the ultimate tube lovers dream.

RE: Never have been.

Higher sensitivity speakers - high efficiency speakers will get around the headroom issue - 91db speakers - with perhaps high varying loads?? means 3 watt sets will struggle. But then it also means 10 watt high negative feedback SS will struggle too. 100 watt SS high negative feedback won't but then they all sound bad.

Moral - there is not a single good reason to buy a hard to drive loudspeaker. There are manufacturers out there that combine high efficiency, high enough sensitivity, in a relatively small box and get bass to 20hz and sound absolutely stunning to boot.
