Speakers for Primaluna 3/5

Kck, you are sharp.... To narrow it down from 11,327 speakers, my budget is no more than $3500.

I have the prologue I and have heard them with three speakers: audio physic yara, sonus faber concerto and opera superpavarotti. The yaras and superpavarotti's fit your aesthetic requirements. Both are slim baffle floorstanders. To my ears, the yara is the better match for the primaluna. More coherent integration of highs and lows. Sweet midrange. Surprisingly extended bass for such a small speaker. See photo under mikemarv virtual system. See a user review over at audioasylum under 'speakers'. The concerto is an incredible speaker for primaluna amps to my ears, but it is a monitor, albeit one that is screwed to its base. Just a beautiful speaker in every way. I would stick with a speaker that is reasonable efficient with your amp. If you want to go up the foodchain you could consider the Reference Gallo 3 or the Zu Druid +/- $3k. The druid will be a bit wider. Stick with a neutral speaker that is not overly warm with these amps. Great combo. Good luck!

I have had the Totem Arro's powered by a PrimaLuna Prologue Two and the sound is fabulous! I recently brought home a pair of Forests and tried the Prima on them as well and was pleasantly surprised at how well the Forests sounded on it. The Totem Arros (or Sttafs) are very small and provide an amazing amount of music for their size!
