Im building a low wattage tube (bottlehead) amp, how efficient are these speakers?


which speakers?

FWIW, I've used a pair of FE127E (in fact at one time or another, many of the actual enclosures pictured above) with a pair of Bottlehead Paramours, as well as clone of Decware 84C Zen and other 2-3W SE and class A PP triode amps. At these levels of sensitivity, the room and your listening habits play a large role in the system's overall effectiveness.

Lots of folks have been happy with combination of drivers with sensitivity as low as 88dB and amps in this weight class.

You'd want to look at one of the 2 boxes with FE127eN. The larger FonkenPrime were one of Chris' main speakers for some time.

About 90 dB/1 watt

For more efficiency in a small driver, you get about an extra 3 dB by going to the FE126... of the boxes on sale, the prototype Madisound BK12M

Are these still for Sale? Sorry folks for the question if I am late for the show. I am a newbie to the single-driver movement and am really liking it! If I had room in my home office, I would just splurge on a pair of Sachiko's.. but since I can't or have the room, these boxes look like they can more than do the job. I have several SET from 3.5wpc to 17wpc. The only thing I do worry about is low end extension.. but it looks like the volume is there to give me enough bass if I need it. Please let me know. Thanks.
 
That's a great deal Dave.....

geshhh hard to give them up - but have a table full of speakers.

Two boxes up for sale (if interested):

Plywood boxes - unfinished (the uncoated drivers shown are not included)
Red boxes - MDF, flare ports.
