Speakers for Leben CS 300XS


I have a Leben CS 300XS and am running Zu Soul Superflys (which I love). I'm in the process of cleaning up a lot of old gear and am thinking about picking up a second set of speakers that might make a nice foil to the Zu's. I've been looking at:

-Triangle Cometes or Altea
-Proacs (would love recommendations)
-Klipsch
-Dynaudios (would love recommendations here, too)
-Devore Fidelity Gibbon 3XLs

Any other thoughts with this amp or a similar el84 amp (it puts out 15w or so)? My listening room is 9 x 20.

I would choose between any of the Devore models and some Coincident Technology models. They all are easy to drive.
The Coincident Technology Triumph Extreme monitors are 94 db and sound excellent. They also make a passive subwoofer that also acts as a stand for the monitors, making for an exzcellent combo. Of course, the more expensive Coincident floor standers are excellent.

Another great floor stander is the Vaughn Cabernet. At about $8,500 delivered it is an outstanding value and an excellent performer. There is a great review on it online in Stereomojo.
