Mcintosh MA6500, monitor speaker suggestions.

Just purchased a MA6500 and expect to receive it within two weeks. Currently using a pair of monitor audio GR10's.
Without hearing this combination, my gut feeling is that
GR10's will match up fairly well because the 10's are a bit
bright, and the Mac is on the warm side.
Anyone currently using this combination, if so what do you think?
Also looking for alternatives to the 10's. What are you MA6500 owners using? My interest is in a monitor speaker system.
Thank in advance for any advice.

Don't raise the output of the MA6500 by lowering the impedance. Reduce the output. Zu Druid Credenza, 12 ohms. I've heard the combination and it makes the MA6500 sound much closer to the musicality of the iron output MA6900/7000, while still having plenty of power for the 101db/w/m Credenzas (high efficiency with lots of power handling).
