Cheap Efficient Speakers

I am looking at setting up a speaker system on a bicycle trailer with a solar panel on top, a deep cycle battery, a class T amp, and a couple of efficient speakers. I know what to get for everything except for the efficient speakers. The reason that they need to be efficient is because of the low wattage of the class T amp. I don't need really good quality since after all this is just going to be a portable audio system that I can bicycle around. I just need to be able to put out some tunes. Any suggestions for relatively good, efficient, and cheap speakers (I am a college student so sub $200 for a pair)?

You might want to consider picking up some computer speakers. My guess is that they are pretty efficient because they are quite a bit smaller than normal bookshelf speakers. Mine appear to each have 2.5" cones and a tweeter.

You'll get the best sensitivity from a pair of MTMs -- e.g. center channel speakers, or similar design. The double woofers gives them better sensitivity than single-woofer designs (usually by about 3db). Also consider a used pair of Klipsch bookshelves (KG-2.5, etc).
