Speakers

Hello,
I recently upgraded my yamaha receiver, replacing it with a 'new' Sansui qrx8001 from the late 70's... a loaded question I know, but does anyone have speaker recommendations for said quad sansui? Mostly vinyl,  some fm, mid-size living room, budget 2k, but maybe more if done in 2 phases.  
thanks

Also look at the Celstion Ditton line. 66's 44's or 33's. Also IMF TLS 50's or 80's
Always recap these if not already done. Makes a huge difference. 

There are a million great 70's speakers out there in your budget.

If you could find a pair of Sansui SP-100 apeakers that have been restored, I think they would please you.

I had a 4 channel system almost 50 years ago, including a 4 channel reel to reel, using Sansui speakers and amp.

Getting music was tough, but I enjoyed the system while I had it.  YMMV.

And as usual, clearthink adds absolutely nothing to the thread.

JBL would be a nice fit with that vintage Sansui. These will fit your budget!
