Speakers for YBA passion 100 Amp

If you like the "French" sound (sweet and detailed, but not hard or overly analytical) I might suggest that you pair your YBA amp with a pair of speakers that will mirror that sound quality.

JM Labs/Focal, Triangle and JM Reynaud all make excellent speakers. It would be had to beat any of the Focal Utopia series, but all of these sound great. If I could make a gross generalization and characterize the three manufacturers, to my ears Focal is the most detailed and JMR is the sweetest and provides the best soundstage. Traingle is somewhere in between.

I recently bought a used pair of JM Reynaud Offrande speakers specifically to use for vocal/classical/chamber/opera music in my new (small) listening room. They are large (well, deep) stand mounted speakers that present a very wide, deep rear image like no other speakers I have ever heard.

I would also suggest the DeVore Fidelity Speakers. They match perfectly well with your YBA amplifier. Flat frequency response with a high sensitivity. Excellent bass response and one of the best speaker for jazz music. There will be no problem with the room.

Eventus Audio Metis.

you will get sweet intoxicating sound;and gosh what a beuty

YBA amps seem to be very good match for Martin Logans, Verity Audio, and the higher end 3A speakers, among others.

I think a DeVore Fidelity Speaker would go very nicely with that amp.

Enjoy the search!
