looking for suggestions for a small floorstander to match up with a ps audio gcc-100 int amp.
price range around 2000.00 new or used
some that come to mind are totem hawk or forest or
spendor s8e. wondering how they sound with class d amp if it makes a difference at all
any comments appreciated

Generally you'd pick the speakers first and then pick the amp. Anyway, the PS Audio 100 integrated should cover you well with a wide range of speakers. I haven't heard the Totems, but I've seen lots of good comments. I suggest trying to hear what you like.

Don't worry about Class D vs. tubes vs. Class A vs. Class AB vs. Class B. When well executed they all can be excellent. PS generally makes good products, so you're probably fine in your price range. I've got a Class D Jeff Rowland Design Group Continuum 500, that competes with "reference" amps and pre-amp from companies like ARC and Conrad Johnson. The name of the technology is not near so important as the designers' abilities and execution of the design.
