Onix SP3: What speakers are you using?


Hello again.
My love affair/obsession with this little amp continues.
My tube compliment and the HiFi Tuning fuses are burning in nicely. I am really, really enjoying this amp, this hobby and the three pairs of speakers I own. That's the problem: I have three sets of speakers I absolutely love.
I'd like to hear from other SP3 owners what speakers they are using, why they like them, and why they pair well with this amp.
I look forward to hearing from you all. I always learn a lot from your responses.

As there is a pair of large Advents on the 'Gon right now, can you describe the sound, soundstage, imaging, etc. for me?
What size room? Stands? Anything else relevant...
BTW: I am using a pair or Onix Reference 1 Mk 2, a pair of Rega R3's and a pair of Rega R5's.
If you haven't heard these speakers you really, really should.
I know that everybody on Earth by now has heard the Onix references, but I find so little on the 'net about the Regas. They are quite simply superb speakers.
Wow.
Thanks for all the great info.
I am amazed to hear the SP3 can power the Harbeths. I am glad to hear it though. This opens the doors to new possibilities for me.
If you haven't heard Rega speakers I highly recommend you do so. For the price, the sound is incredible. Hey I own two pairs and I can't decide which I like better: the Rega R3's, Rega R5's or the Onix Ref 1 Mk 2's.
Heck, I just swap them out every month or so and I really enjoy them all.
Please give the Regas a listen. The new RS series are said to be even better.
