Best Speakers match for NAD C372

I happened to be auditioning NAD amps and some of the speakers mentioned above this week - I think Hieule 5 and Kbakamian are barking up the right trees. What I heard that sounded good with NAD:

-Paradigm Monitor 9 ( I liked the Paradigm SE in this pairing, but not as much as the Monitor's, which surprised me).

-Paradigm Signature towers (over your budget but much preferable to Studio line with NAD IMHO).

-PSB's new Imagine series - Bookshelf's in range plus decent PSB sub (not as crazy about the Image series compared with these others, just not as much there, there. The Imagine towers are every bit as good sounding to me as reviews suggest, but two grand new).

-Vandersteen 1c or 2ce Signature (later would need to be purchased used to come in under budget - fantastic speakers). I heard the 1c driven by NAD's little 315 and was shocked at how good they sounded.

-Used Dynaudio Focus 140 would be terrific as well.

-Will add one other speaker to list - B&W CM5, relatively new large stand mount, very good match with C372 in this price range.

I heard the Totem Rainmakers and Arros with a relatively modest Rotel integrated and they sounded great as usual, but didn't hear with NAD and can't remember how that pairing sounds. Suggest you heed advice given above RE Totems.

I have paired NHT's with NAD (272 and now a 275) and they work well together. NHT is having a sale on their website, 18% off of everything. NHT classic 3's (which I own) are normally 700 and the NHT 4's are normally 1500. Nice chance to get a good deal on some very good speakers.

I have used a 372 with BW 705's. Put a little Sunfire
sub out from the pre-outs in the back. Really cool.

I have had quite a bit of NAD equipment over the years.
The pre-outs on the back are as good as the most expensive pieces I have owned.

I also agree with the PSB matching. Cannot beat it for the money.

I either use NAD or Mcintosh now. DEPENDS on how much wallet bleeding I am in the mood for.
