Building a system around the Avanti 3's, need help

Hi Jbo: which Avanti, what kind of music do you MAINLY listen to & judge by, yr tastes in reproduction? This info would help us give meaningful recommendations.
I had Avanti @ home & have heard & set up a few other pairs at friends' & dealers'

I listen to everything really (except rap and country). I mostly listen to jazz, classical and classic rock. I should also say that I am not married to tubes or solid state exclusively. I am open to any suggestions.

I owned avanti's for a few years. In general, they do not need much power & they favor high quality components and revealing cabling.

Off the top of my head, the best combination I can think of would be:
Audio Aero 24/192 cd player direct driving an ARC v100m2 tube amplifier with svetlana kt88 tubes. Use a nordost quattro-fil ic to connect them & use nordost spm speaker cables.

I think the best solid state for them is pass labs. I used mine with the aleph 2 100w monblocks & aleph P preamp. I later moved up to an X1 preamp. I haven't heard the x series amplifiers yet.

For tube electronics, I had two favorites:
(1) The BAT vk-5i (or vk50se), and an arc vt100
(2) A 15 watt Cary 300 SEI with Western electrics.

For cabling, I found Nordost quattro-fil was my favorite for ic's with SPM speaker cables. I also had good sound using the acoustic zen satori speaker cable. It's a little slow and syrupy compared to spm, but has more harmonics and can tame a bright top end.

John,
Did you own the avanti 3's, or the older avanti's?
