Help Need speakers for Peachtree Audio Nova 125

Hi everyone,

I just purchased a Peachtree Audio Nova 125 here, and am about to pull the trigger on a recent pair of Magnepan MMGs as well.

Before I purchase the MMGs, I want to get your informed opinions on the best speakers for my integrated amp.

My room is large (at least 30x20x12), with a large bay window, no treatments but lots of rugs.

My musical tastes are quite varied, from classical to reggae, but mostly Contemporary Jazz and classic/pop rock.

I like my music rather loud at times, but also at moderate levels when I am alone and wanting to focus on the performance.

As I will need to export my setup some time in the near future, size is also a factor... sniff...

Thanks for your advice and related experiences.

Oh... if I get the MMGs, I also plan to buy one or two subwoofers to assist in the lower frequencies. Something like REL T5/SVS SB12-NSD. What do you think?

My budget for the speakers is around 1000$, or 500$ x 2 for good used subs. Makes any sense?

Regards to all

That's a very cost effect setup. Sounds like a good plan.

I see the Peachtree spec at 125w/ch 8Ohm, >200 4 OHM, Class D.

Should fo a nice job on paper.

Anyone know what Class D amp modules the Peachtrees use now or any other key aspects of its design in regards to power supply, Bandwidth, etc?

THis is first I heard of Peachtree hybrid with Class D amp. Very nice!

Also asynch USB, reclocking for low jitter, and on/off switchable tube buffer

VEry nice! This would seem to have hit all the right buttons on paper for a mere $1500. THis could well represent the future of high end audio but with more mass appeal. I'd be pressed to see how this cannot sound quite good. Something I would consider myself whereas older Peachtree hybrids were nice but power amp sections in particular not their strong suit.
