Need speaker advice for new Rotel system


Hello fellow Audiogoners. I just purchased a Rotel system consisting of the following components for my new 2-channel system I'm building: RB-1080 (200wpc amp), RC-1090 (pre-amp), RCD-1072 (cdp).

I've only heard a handful of speaker manufacturers and LOVE Focal and Dynaudio (I'm sure I don't have enough real power for Dyn. though). But am not quite familiar with what is recommended for Rotel, or at least what is popular with you knowledgeable folks.

Any help would be appreciated greatly. Oh, and to add I'll be using Tara Labs XLR RSC vector 2 interconnects between the pre and amp, and am using Analysis Plus Oval 9 speaker cable for whatever I end up with on that end :) Still need interconnects to go between the cdp and pre though.

Thanks in advance!!!

i owned the v26 focal and love their balance and the 705 are extremely good for the money...they are monitors...
I had B&W 703s with a RB1080 amp for a number of years and thought that they sounded terrific together. You might want to check out the B&W product lines.
I'll echo what Rshad0000 said as from what I've heard, Rotel and B&W makes a quite a good sounding combination.
