Looking for Speaker Recommendations

Forget the maggies you need a lot but a lot of power. The mg20 you need to split out the low middle and the high that's four amps. I have them in the passed with four cello performance and an fm accoustic crossover. Forget it with one amp. Or go for the lrs plus with the new woofer or the 1.7

Focal Kanta 2 pairs exceptionally well with McIntosh. The Be tweeters in them are detailed but not fatiguing like the 900 series and vastly better then modern B&W speakers.  The Sonus faber Olympicas are also excellent speakers depending on your music tastes. Jazz, piano, and vocals are amazing with Sf + Mac but it can be a little too smooth with other kinds of music. I own both sets of speakers and keep my Kantas with my Mac setup and my Olympicas are on my brighter amps. 

Just bought a pair of Fritz Carbon 7 Mk2. Beautiful looking speaker. Unbelievable bass for a monitor, Great soundstage. disappear into room.

Spatial Audio Labs open baffle is the way to go. 

I have the MA8900 paired with a Roon Nucleus + and Sonus Faber Olympica Nova Vs in a large living room. Sound amazing. Same company, that amp and SFs are made for each other.
