From looking at the spec of the A/V-3 the Sensitivity at 91db is the same at A/V-1. Because its a 8ohm speaker it more efficeint?
Also, if i go that route I will have to make or have made the speaker cabinets. Can I get speaker enclosure plans? Thank you for your time. :)

Actually the sensitivity of the A/V-1 is only 88db.The A/V-1+ is 91db.
CAD type drawings of the enclosure come with the kit. I can email them to you in advance if you like.

All this time Ive been referring to the A/V-1+.
Says its rated at 91db. Lets back up a bit then. Will the A/V-1+ with 4ohm and 91 sensitivity be a good match for WAV-8 10watt mono tube amps with 8ohm output.
Wonder if I can change speakers or tubeamps to be compatible.
I am not real familiar with that amp.10 watts is easily enough to drive them to good solid levels in a small to medium sized room. I don't know how well that particular amp will like the 4 ohm load. I would ask the amplifier manufacturer.
Our 8 watt Dodd Amp drives them pretty easy with no problems at all.
Gary Dodd even has a pair of A/V-1+'s that he uses as a reference speaker and he has driven them with the 8 watt amp as well with no problem. He also said it was producing steady 100db levels in his listening room.
