your amplifier has very limited power, and that is your problem. If you don't want to rob a bank, buy an organ amplifier. They come in different flavors and power output. I can particularly recommend 6V6 Hammond amp for its beautiful tone. My daughter uses one of these with her Clavinova and she is very happy with it. Hammond 6BQ5 amps are not bad either. 10-12 watts from these amps should be more than adequate with your speakers, and they go for $20-30 plus shipping on eBay. Or, if you want something more serious, there are organ amps with 2x6550 tubes or 4x6L6 rated 50-60 W. I have a pair of 60 watt Allen amps designed for concert use, wonderful amplifiers! You can buy one of those for less than $300.Budget some money for their restoration, though.
