Best Speaker synergy with AudioReseach and Bryston

I have recently aquired an Audio Research SP9 MKIII and a Bryston 3B ST that so far has been a match made in heaven. I am running a pair of Monitor Audio MA800 golds and was curious if anyone has had similar combo or if they have found a combination that is so good it's tough to duplicate. I've always heard Vandy's are the best with AR, but want some real world feed back. I mainly listen to vinyl with the on board tubed preamp from the AR with a LOMC Erocia Goldring cart w/ 100k resistors. Any thoughts/input would be greatly appreciated.
