Can someone help me pick out my first speakers?

I am currently driving mt Tannoy Sterlings with a Line Magnetic 211ai which delivers 35wpc in ultrilinear mode. Seems plenty drive in my living room area.  I agree that the PL will be fine regarding power output. My problem with the 211ai is the...

I am hoping the OP didn't get turned off by the immediate and quickly deleted responses such that he/she disapeared.     
The one time you want to pull out but she says no.
I am in a similar situation with my living room system. I am going to use the gliders from Herbies and the therapy as mentioned by @soix .

Check out Music Direct and Audio Advisor. Do you have an amplifier that you will be using with said speakers? The Pioneer BS-22 speaker sold for $130 when available. Possibly you can find a used pair. Wharfedale Diamonds also a good choice. Des...

What are the best entry level integrated amps and speakers?
Old thread. None of us has heard back from OP on the decision.  
Amp for B&W 706 s2
Look online for the manual for the NAD. I have owned the 326 and 356BEE. Both have a variable pre output for a subwoofer.      
CD Transport Question
I own the Cambridge and find no fault with it. I understand gains can be made at a much greater price point.   
All in 5-6k for setup in living room...with bad acoustics
You can do very well with your budget buying used. Some thoughts: So if the the budget is for speakers and amplification pick the speakers 1st and then find the right amplifier for them. I would stay away from metal dome tweeters, go with fabric ...
