Speakers and amplifiers show audiophiles are confused.

I married my wife without matching her to any amplifiers and without consideration as to what cables work best. My only explanation as to why she married me was that she did so with her eyes closed.

I purchased my integrated amp first and then shopped for speakers, but the reverse would have been a better strategy.

BTW Ops system description is mind boggling.

An audiophile buys a pair of speakers for $50K or $100K then asks what amps make them sound best.

If anyone is buying speakers that cost $50K+ they likely thought long and hard about a matching amp before banging their plastic.

I think you asked the wrong question. The bigger problem is matching the speakers to the room, placing them, getting the room treated and dialed in, and of course doing this all with WAF, not the amp.

Before you buy the speakers make sure you have the room figured out. 

For $50K+ I can figure out a room NP and worry about the speakers later 😎

OP, wouldn't it be helpful to have a relationship with a dealer you like and trust?  They may have the knowledge and experience to make helpful suggestions.  They may relay feedback from other users.  And you can still "go it alone" if you choose.
