I have the DECWARE SE84C upgraded zen triode amplifier 5 watts/ch. / Rega Jupiter CD Player

Which would be the best pair of Pi speakers for a 15x15 room?

Complete Kit / Shipped to 77554 / @ around $700.00

Thanks,

Hi Benny,
Really small tube amps like the Decware Zen prefer speakers with as low impedence (z-max) as possible. Any of the Pi Thermonic series will work, as will the Theater 4 PI model. Avoid the Pro series as they prefer to see at least ten watts per channel. I think you will find this forum to be fun and educational. Browse around a bit; there's a lot of information about Pi speakers with single ended tube amps.
Take care,
Steve

For what it's worth, I tried using an SE84CS with Thermionic 4 Pi's and didn't like the combination. Also for what it's worth, I sold the amp and kept the speakers.
