Best Speakers with a DNA-1?

I agree with Bob and Hifiman.  As for used gear, there are some great stories and some not so great ones.  As long as you have an idea of who you are getting it from and or can see/hear it first (Bob came over and listened for a bit before taking them).  I have been burned a few times, so I get a bit skittish on speakers.  I'd never get a used pair that used foam surrounds.  The only problem with older drivers is that the materials on them wear out after a period of time.  The newer materials won't do that and if they do, the life span will be much much longer.  For components, caps and things do dry up and fail over time, so that's also a concern.  That's one reason I alway send out older components to be looked at and upgraded as needed.  Even on the Onix integrated I'm going to sell, I had someone check it out a couple of years ago and install some new caps etc.. as needed.  It's just a buyers beware deal. 

I know on used Vandersteen's, I've seen guys send them back for the upgrades (if any are offered) and pass that cost along to the next owner as he will only upgrade if it's the original buyer.  I've seen that set up in the past and then the person purchasing them, knows they are getting a speaker that is latest and greatest AND has mostly new components.  Works out great for all.  Just another thought.

+1 for CT.
Buying used equipment can be fraught with problems, but buying something of recent production, and being able to visit the seller, help a lot in preventing unforeseen issues.
Also, buying equipment from reliable manufacturers who offer upgrades to their equipment, makes thing even better. 
That is why I like Vandersteen, Ayre, McCormack, Atma-Sphere & Schiit.
I never have to worry that I can't repair a damaged component.

FWIW.......I'm on last of three day in-home audition of Harbeth P3s.
As I've mentioned,my current speakers are B&W 303s. Long story
short,since I just posted a lengthy post on another thread.....I  found the P3s to be everything they are said to be on the many,many threads and reviews I read . A speaker I could easily live with for a 
long time, just a beautiful sound to me . My B&Ws have held their 
own quite well though so I will keep them and let the Harbeths go,at
least for now.Who knows what the future will bring. Once the bug hits
it's hard to quell. Glad to find that the 303s present themselves so 
well against such a well regarded speaker as the P3. Lessons learned......audition at home if possible. I've bought my amp used,the McCormack DNA 1 (of original subject of this thread) without a listen,and more recently a Modwright 9.0  ss rectified ,also
without hearing first,and both have been stellar performers.But I think
the nature of speakers calls for a listen first,and like I said,a home 
audition is very helpful. This audition has also showed me first hand
that you are the best judge of what " sounds good " . Not always 
easy to decide for yourself . Kind of like sticking your neck out a bit.
  With that I'll sign off. Love the P3 sound but will sit tight for now
with no regrets.
