I always say look at your system as a system.

High efficiency speakers like Altecs are a huge advantage in designing a system. You need very little system gain which makes everything better, fewer stages, lower mu tubes. If you have a hair trigger preamp, you have wayyyyyy to much gain in your system. Throwing it away in feedback and volume pots just makes everything worse.
