Speakers that are good with tubes


I have see several recommendations against tube amps powering certain speakers. But which speakers are known to really like time amps, especially high powered tube amps?

I must have missed the part where he said the amps were 350 wpc. If I had know that, I would have skipped this thread altogether. 

This is way out of my league. 

Considering they are McIntosh they would probably match best with some highly resolving speakers. I find McIntosh to be very heavy on the bass and midrange and very shy on details… the choice in speakers is really important to get the most out of what the signal chain can provide.

Thanks for the replies.  I have Focal Scala Utopia Evos.  They sound really good.  I wished that I had bumped up to the Maestros though.  I just didn’t know if there was a general type of speaker to steer toward.  Magico S5 and M2s sounded good.  So did Harbeth SLH5+HDs.  I didn’t think that the Sonys Faber Serafino or Amati Traditions sounded that great with the C2700/MC3500 Mk2s surprisingly.
