Best speakers for GaN1? Or should I change amps???

It’s been some time since I bought the Peachtree GaN1 + Bluesound Node combo.    Unfortunately, I’ve hardly used it, as I’ve been working away from home.   I have it paired with a little pair of Ruark Epilogue speakers + JL Audio Sub.    Sound isn’t great.

I’m looking for suggestions for the best speakers for the GaN1?
 

Or should I just move it on & start again?
 

 

Thanks

With those speakers I wouldn’t expect much.  What specific improvements are you looking for, what sound characteristics are most important to you, what’s your budget, and are you looking for new or used?

Sorry, I should have said, I like a big bold, warm, rich sound.   Clarity, but not clinical.    I really struggle with a lot of HiFi, which to my ear is very forward & clinical.

Budget flexible for the right solution, but preferably under £10k.

Always happy to go used.

Harbeth SHL-5. Big sound. Amp friendly and definitely not forward. Stands are important, so not a place to economize.
