Recommendations and thoughts for end game speakers and amps

Good morning all. I am looking at Rockport Avior ii speakers. My dealer likes Boulder amps with these but I wanted to get everyone’s opinion first. I will be getting an integrated with HT bypass. Right now I’m looking at the Boulder 866, Gryphon Diablo 300, and the Simaudio 700iv2. Has anyone listened to these speakers with these amps? I’m looking for highly detailed but not harsh highs and mids and outstanding bass as well. Basically a set up that performs fantastic from top to bottom. If you have any other speaker or amp suggestions please let me know. Thank you!

OP, @ ghasley expressed his displeasure at members recommending something they have never tried, and I fully agree. I also do not think you will get an unbiased opinion from retailers.

What I am recommending, without hearing, is the speaker cable from Silversmith. He looks at the whole process differently/correctly. I include a link to an interesting review and hope you find it valuable. At their price I am very tempted to try.
