Best Speakers to match Ayre V-1xe and K-1xe


I've listened to a lot of options in the last 3 weeks. Wilson Sophias and Watt Puppy 8's, Dynaudio C2's and C4's, Avalaon Indras. I wish I could hear Vandersteen 5a's but no local dealer. Does anyone who knows well or owns Ayre gear comment on the best fit?

1st off, what an amazing front end! I've found the Ayre & Avalon combo to be pretty astounding. Since Charlie Hanson founded Avalon, it makes sense. I brought in my K-5 & V-3 to listen to the Avalon NPs, and SRV never sounded so alive. People in the store actually would stop by and listen themselves.

I would also second the Quatros as a good choice. Large soundstage. My last suggestion would be the ProAc D38s. Amazing midrange, full deep bass and extended treble. The ProAc-Ayre combo is one of my favorites.
