Classe owners...Please help with speaker selection

I'm looking for a pair of speakers to match with my CAP-101. I mainly listen to blues and jazz. I'm curious to hear what speakers other Classe owners have matched with their amps and integrateds. I'm trying to keep the cost under $800 new or used. I have no preference in terms of bookshelf or floorstanding speakers.

Thanks in advance for your help!

I've used Triangle Titus and Linn Tukan's in the $400-500 price range. The Tukan's sounded much better. The Classe-Titus combination could be harsh in the upper frequencies. The Linn's are more musical, warmer than the Titus, but a little thin still. I'd keep going up to your $800 price point!

I heard the Classe CAP-101 with a pair of B&W CDM 1NT's and thought that it sounded quite nice. It was a very luxurious sound. I only listened for a brief time, not sure if it would become fatiguing or not. I guess it would depend on your listening preference.
