Wilson Sabrina and these speakers will pair well with McIntosh gears.

The Sonus Faber and the B&W 800 Diamond series will also pair well with the McIntosh. "
I visited a friend's house this past weekend. He was driving B&W 803 D3s with McIntosh pre and power amps. He also spent a lot of time on his room setup. I must say that they sounded great.

There are so many good speakers in this price range, especially if also considering used. It would take me months to sort through them.
