What speakers to match my new cary 805 AE


I just acquired my dream amplifiers, the cary 805 ae. I was not planning to make this purchase but an incredible opportunity presented its self and I had to jump on it. Oh little did I know what a can of worms I have opened for myself. I have just let my wilson W/P 3/2 go so that I might get into a speaker that might be a better matched to that SET sound. The Wilson's by no means sounded bad but you could tell that the amps were struggling to drive the puppies just above moderate listening levels. I have done quite a bit of reading looking for a good match, where that has left me is, CRAZY..Any suggestions or experience would be greatly appreciated.

We ran these at the Stereeophile show together one year with great results on The Vandersteen 5As.
With the 400 watt amps already built in the Bass section of the Vandy 5As the Cary 805s work wonders on the top half of this 8 ohm speaker. Kimber Kable and your done.
