Speakers for Yamaha AS2100


Hello all, 

was recently able to purchase a Yamaha as2100 for a really good price and was wondering what speakers would pair well with it. Budget for speakers will be $2k but am flexible. Was wondering if I could get some feedback from any AS2100 owners. Looking for bookshelf speakers preferably. Listen to a bit of everything but mainly jazz and 80s music. Will not be playing at ear splitting volumes as I live in an apartment. And feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

best,

Mike

Given what you’re looking for, used ProAc Response D2 or Tablette Signature or Anniversary would be great choices.  For less $ used Nola Boxer would also sound great with your amp.  If you’re looking new the Silverline Minuet Grand is quite a speaker.  I like Totems a lot too, but they can be a bit finicky about electronics so just not sure how they’d play with your Yammy.  I think Joseph Audio speakers do everything Totems do but are easier to drive and a little more forgiving, but good luck finding a pair in your price range.  Best of luck in your search. 
What aspects of sound reproduction and speaker performance are most important to you?
