speaker advice' help needed

Anyone out there have any recommendations on speakers (new or used, $500-$1000) to match with this experiment I'm putting together:
Jolida 502B integrated amp
arcam 73 CD
RS-Audio interconnects
(Sugg on speaker wire too?)

Mucical tastes: mostly classical with emphisis on large orchestra; blues; instrumental

Thanks so much

I'm also considering high efficincy speakers such as Omega and Cainx2.
Thoughts anyone?

I like both the Cains and the new Omegas but you don't get that full fledged Orchestral sound as much with these fostex style full range drivers. The Cains even though they are much larger aren't as full sounding to me. You don't need even 35wpc for either of them. The Omegas sound big with single digit SETs. Try the new small model you will be amazed. Great tonal balance. I don't know the arcam very well.
