Verity Parsifal or Magico V3 or Wilson Benesch ACT

I owned a pair of the original Verity Audio Parsifals and they were fantastic in my room (19'x15'x8' - speakers on the long wall). I went high efficiency route for a while (Avantgarde Uno's then Duo's) but am looking for a dynamic speaker again.

These three are on my list, but I would consider others as well. I have not heard any of these, and nobody around has the WB Act.

I would prefer something that I could drive with around 50-100w of tube power.

Would appreciate any comments on these.

Whatever the measurements say, if the speaker sounds good to me, I don't care.

Nothing wrong with that. Assuming you know what you are listening to. But if you are going to make some stupid claims, like the Stealth bomber bla bla bla… analogy, you better be prepare for some scrutiny. But in a sense, once you say ‘you do not care’, it opens the door to all sorts of BS.

I would also add the Vandersteen 5A s to your list
The Five as offer a Battery Biased High pass that relives your tube amp from doing low bass and dramatically lowers the whole systems distortion improving clarity and transparency. Each speaker also has a self contained 400 watt self powered bass amp with a unique non digital
room compensation feature that's a real world solution with
each speakers in room response.

By all means enlighten me. Tell me exactly why carbon fiber cabinets are not technologically advanced compared to most other options. I believe Marten Coltrane speakers at 60K are made of carbon fiber. Perhaps their engineers are fools like me.
