Wanted... Advice - Best Speaker for McIntosh Amp


Help Please. I'm building my first 2 channel system in many years. I realize speaker sound is subjective and personal; however, I would love some advice.

Listening Room. Den with many windows, 13'W X 25'L X 8.5'H
Power System. McIntosh C-2200 Tube Preamp
McIntosh MC 352 SS amp
Listen to about everything from Nat King Cole to Led Zepplin.
Price Range: $1,500 to $3,000 used
Kinda leaning toward B&W 804N, 805N, or Monitor Audio Gold Ref 60... any thoughs? Jim

I used to own the MC 300 amp with the C-15 preamp. I used it with B&W Matrix 802's, PSB Gold i's, and Aerial Model 6's. The 802's were really awesome with the McIntosh - just because the matrix line is discontinued don't count it out! It sounded fine with the other speakers too, but the PSB's weren't quite as good as the other two. Sometimes I wish I still had the whole system.
