Got any wonderful but unlikely pairings?

Hi,

I'm using Quicksilver V4s with NOS Tesla E34L tubes, driving a pair of Hales Concept Twos (only 85db effecient) through Nordost cabling with excellent results in a smallish room.
Sota-Sme-Benz, Naim-CD, Vtl-pre, all Nordost cabling.

Are there other surprising pairings, that seem to work especially well, that anyone else would like to share?

Regards,
Huard
