euro speakers for Luxman SQ-N150
I had the sq-n100 and really, there is a limit to what those small tube amps can handle. (Didn't handle ProAc D15 at higher volumes) Unless you only listen to mellow acoustic music at low volumes, you should probably look for above 90db and 8 ohm... 
Tannoy Stirlings on the way!
@trentmemphis    Have Cheviots with Luxman 590AX. Lots of power. Smooth, but still a lot of punch when needed. Tons of versatility if that matters. Phono, separate, loudness, tone controls etc.

From Naim to Luxman...?
Can't compare, but I have previously tried the SQ-N10 on the Forte III. Auditioned the combo several times, before choosing the Tannoy Cheviot. Also used the SQ-N10 for a while on ProAC D15, before the change mentioned above.The SQ-N150 I've only ...
