I would like to partner a Sun Audio SV-2A3 tube amplifier with a pair of DIY horn Fostex speakers.
Which models of Fostex speakers do you recommend to buy for a 2A3 tube amplifier? reason why?

Thanks

Well, most are pretty efficient so they should be good with the lowish output. Better question is which will work better with your style of music/room size/volume needs.

Indeed. The FE127 is not efficient enuff even in a small room if you want to turn it up. For a horn you'd want to look at the FE126 anyway, which would be the OK level wise. If you want the to play really loud one of the larger drivers is better in that sense, althou you give up some of the midrange magic of the smaller drivers.
