help with budget, low power speaker selection


Well it is time to upgrade my speakers, and I would like to see if anyone can help me with selection. My system consist of a rega P25 with incognito rb250, EAR 834p with cap and tube upgrade, Cary slp-30 with tele tubes, and a pair of ASL wave DT. My budget tops out at $1000. I have looked at the Meadowlark Kestral 2 (which I like but are a little out of my range). Any other suggestions that would mate well with the eight watts from the ASL? New or used will work.
Thanks!

Though I've never heard them and my opinion is therefore potentially worth exactly nothing, when I think cost-effective and tube-friendly my thoughts always seem to drift towards my recurrent fascination with Soliloquy gear. (One day I'll have to actually scratch this itch and listen to a pair). BTW, love the Kestrel but was dissapointed by the Swift. As always, listen first.
