Conrad Johnson and Proac Speakers

I am in the process of upgrading my amplifier. Currently, I have a Conrad Johnson preamp (PV-10B) and really like the CJ sound. I would like to add an MF2500a (used, from audiogon) to my system, but I also need to think of speakers. Proac has always sounded good to me, and I am interested in perhaps the d38. Are there any opinions on how well a match this would be, or any suggestions on what other speakers might work well given my amp preference? Thanks

I'd buy speakers first and worry about the amp later.

Buy the 2500A. I never met a speaker that said "no it's too much power, take it away." My 2500a has no downside that I can find, and I see no reason to think a smaller amp would be quicker etc. I freely admit I am not a speaker first guy, but have always started with the pre-amp, then the amp, then the sound source and finally the speakers.
