One more thing. Tubes with higher wattage might be an answer to drive stand-mount speakers. Tubes such as the 845 or 211. Output tubes in the say, 15 watt and lower range seem to limit speaker choice. It would be nice to have some dynamic range.

I suppose a 20-50 watt SET amp could drive speakers at 90-93 sensitivity with a friendly impedance. Are the low wattage tubes necessarily more desirable?
