What loudspeakers do you have your Primaluna amp paired with?

I would like to see a thread on users experiences. It would make a great knowledge base to hear about choices, comparisons, likes/dislikes, etc.  Have you experience results that one might not expect? For example, loudspeakers costing a fraction of the PL sounding superb or driving lower efficiency speakers pretty well.

I have used my Dialogue Premium HP integrated to great effect with the following setups:

PSB Imagine T2s
Klipsch Forte IIIs
KEF LS50s
Wharfedale Denton 80th 
Wharfedale Linton 85th

I have heard it used with Golden Ears (forget which model) and PSB Imagine T3s. 

The amp can make even a reasonably priced speaker like the Linton ($1500 with stands) sound wonderful. 

I regret that I was never able to try with a pair of Totems I once owned but, probably, prematurely sold. I know Totems can be power hungry and I still would have thought it would drive them.

It’s crazy how as good as the Dialogue Premium HP is, the EVO stuff is noticeably better.   I haven’t heard a single speaker that the PL stuff doesn’t work amazingly well with.

my PL Dialogue Premium is paired with von Schweikert db99s. The speakers are very "quick" and don't take a lot of power. I'm getting tremendous dynamics and detail and was pleasantly surprised a tubed amp could provide this without costing megabucks. I swapped out the power tubes for Genelex KT77s. Great detail and even tonality up and down the spectrum.
