You can build the LM-1 kits or Jeff Bagby's Continuum speakers in this price range. The LM-1 are around 89 dB sensitivity. Both are small monitors though so you won't get full range.
8-16 ohm budget speakers
Looking for suggestions for speakers that represent an easy drive for a Dynaco ST-70 amplifier. I was thinking ones with 90+ dB sensitivity and 8+ ohms across the frequency range w/benign phase angle. As this is a secondary system I am looking to spend $300-$400 on the used market. Thanks.

I have a bookshelf kit that will run you about $350 if you want to build them yourself. :) More if you go with premium crossover parts. Measurements are here. Design is 100% free and parts available from multiple sources. Sensitivity is 89dB, impedance is over 8 Ohms until around 200 Hz where it drops to 6. Should be a very easy load. |
