speaker recommendations for Ayre V-5xe?

Hi All,

I recently picked up this amp used and have a Lumin T2 connected direct

I'd like to try a couple of standmount speakers in the 5-10k price range that would be considered an ideal match for the amp to really see what it can do

open to all ideas, was thinking Dynaudio heritage specials, the new Fritz Purifi model, Bowers 805d4

will likely get the Ascend Sierra-2EX v2 to start as it is relatively inexpensive and then go from there

really seeking a specific model if possible that is known to have synerygy with this amp

thanks in advance

Ayre and Vandy's are a great match. In your budget, a pair of Treo's or Quatro's used, would be great choices.

As Joey pointed out John Rutan (Audioconnection) would be a very good source for information, as he is very familiar with many brands (and, not just the one's he sells). He is on Audiogon and Audioconnection is his tag. Otherwise, call him. I can tell you, honestly, that he is not like most dealers and won't try to sell you something- only provide the best/honest information. And, if you doubt me, just do a search here on Audiogon.
