IMO, this isn't a forum to discuss politics.
So, to the OP, firstly glad to hear that your area of the country is less impacted.
As to the speakers to audition with your very nice ARC Classic 30 ( I like this amp a lot, as I used to own a D70Mk2 and it has some similarities),
you have a very good local company to go with...Sonus Faber. One of their stand mount speakers would work well...if funds allow...the choice new would be their new Electa Amator 3 or if budget dependent, the new Minima Amator 2...both would sound excellent with your amp.
Might need to add subs, dependent on your room and musical taste, but that could be done later. ( although I suspect you would be very pleased without subs with these two candidates).
