I need very sensitive speakers that wont break the bank

[RGA]

How low powered -- the Audio Note AX Two can be easily driven with the meishu an 8 watt SET -- it runs $600.00US. They are 90db sensitive but they present an easy impedence (whiich is more important than the sensitivity alone). Now this is all with an eye on the room the AX Two is not meant for big rooms and in a medium room may want more power in the 8-10 watt range. If you're running 3watts or less in a big room you'll probably want to look to lowther or a number of used speakers. Though it has been said my OTO is rewally only 6 watts per channel -- it has no trouble with the AX Two nor does it have trouble with low impedence -- it just doesn't like big impedence swings AND low sensitivity.

Good luck - very low powered SET does make speaker hunting a little hard -- but generally hard to drive speakers I don't like too much -- I can;t think of a single one I would choose to own.

Well i'm not looking to drive them with 1 watt per channel, but lets just say i'm probably gonna go with sth like 10 watts per channel. sth like this for example http://cgi.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/auc....60401&auc&3&4&
the room isnt big at all either.
how's the S.E.X. power amp? it seems pretty popular, but 2 watts per channel at 10%THD sounds pretty pityful to me...
cheers!
