Speaker suggestions to go with MAC gear please

Hi all. I've recently acquired a McIntosh C2200 tube pre and MC2102 tube amp and am looking for suggestions for speakers that mate well with these two. I currently have VA Beethovens which I do like alot but am looking for something different to try. My budget is up to $5K new or used. I mainly listen to vocals, older rock, acoustical music. Actually vocals are the most important aspect. I'd like to hear the singer in the room with me.

The other gear which I will use is Cary 303 (which will be next to go as the upgrade money allows); Music Hall mm-7 for vinyl and Cardas GF cables.
Thanks! Mike.

I auditioned the C100 and MC352 on Tannoy D700s and was very very impressed. Everyone in the dealer came around to hear the event. It was the most popular setup there although definately not the most expensive.

I however don't really like B&W with McIntosh. I favor the richer sound the Tannoys offer, not to mention their excellent efficiency for tubes. You have great taste - the C2200+MC2102 combo is a heck of a pair. Good luck
