AES 6 pacs Speaker choice?

Which speakers would work well with an Audio Electronics Six-Pac & AES preamp system?

My room is about 16x14, music is about 85% blues-based rock both acoustic & electric. 15% Jazz & Classical.

I would like to go with out seperate subs, cabinets need to be moderate size and nice looking wood prefered.

In design I prefer simple over complicated- a two way would be nice.

I do tend to listen loud.

Budget is $2000. -$3000.

Thanks,

If you're willing to treat your room with acoustic panels, you may be able to make a pair of Vandersteen 2ce Sig II's work. This speaker will not meet your "wood" requirement.

I have used the AES AE-3 DJH and a pair of Sixpacs with a pair of B&W N805s and a REL Strata III and really enjoyed it. I hooked up my AES gear to my friend's Vandie 2ce Sigs and thought the combo was great (and no sub needed).

While I have not heard this particlar combo, I'd be interested in hearing the AES gear with a pair of Acoustic Zen Adagios.
