Integrated / speaker pairings in the $6-7K range

What synergistic integrated/speaker pairings have you experienced in the $3K-range per component ($6-7K total), given a moderately sized room (say 150-250 sf)? For example, I know from personal experience (and recommendation) that a Belles Aria and Vandersteen 1ci's work really well together. Curious for your ideas. Thanks!

Luxman and Harbeth (you can find other threads on this combo), Totem and NAD was a nice setup for me, but you cannot compare the two systems in the way they sound. Totally, totally different. So I totally agree with SOIX4

Ayre and Vandersteen.

I think a used AX-7e and the 2Ce Sig III’s would be a great match.

In the past I had the AX-5 Twenty powering 3A Sigs.

I am using the following combo in a 150 sq ft room with fantastic results:

Belles Aria Signature integrated amp @ 120 WPc
dynaudio special 40 speakers

you can get that combo within your budget parameters.

unless the Dynaudio heritage special tempts me, I can live with this combo for decades.
