Help need speaker to match Threshold 4000 amp....

Hello, I have a newly acquired Threshold 4000 (200 wattts class A).Temporary using s/s Nikko Alpha pre-amp but thinking match this amp with Cary SLP-98L in a Month.
WHAT I NEED NOW IS A SPEAKER TO MATCH THRESHOLD 4000/CARY SLP-98L .I LIKE WARM SOUND NOT BRIGHT OR HARSH.

my own choice is a Proac Tablette 2000 or Proac Response 1sc or planar? under $1,200
Your recommendation please.Thanks a lot pescolar.

I use the ARC SP17L with my Threshold Stasis 2 and like what I hear.

But the SP-17's impedance is 60k... I think my Stasis 2 is 15k just like the 4000a

Nelson Pass designed the thing. I would listen to him.

I wanted to clarify my post above. I contacted Nelson about my Stasis 2 and he informed me the following.

The input impedance is 75K. There is a 4.75K resistor and then a 10K resistor, the 10K has been bootstrapped to
a 70K value.

So the 75k reported looks to be the correct answer for both the 4000 and Stasis 2.
