Your sixty watts of tube power would be on low limit of what can make Dahlquist get up and walk around. The 'K' in KLH stands for Henry Kloss, the orignal Advent's designer. KLH 17s are fine but I would view them as proto-Advents. The Advents competition at the time I got mine was the Dynaco A-25. This Danish SEAS design does not do the room shaking bass of the Advent but it is smooth and musical. For 'stereo spectacular' recordings the Advents impress where with small ensemble recordings the A-25 might be the more realistic. The 21 year old me picked Advents but I bet the 59 year old me would pick Dynaco A-25s. Worth a listen if you can find a good pair. The standard, if there is such a thing, stacked Advents were one on top of the other with tweeter up on the lower speaker and down on the the top speaker.
