Speakers for NAD C370

My NAD 370 drives a pair of B&W 805 Matrix speakers via
Kimber 8TC cables with excellent results. CD's are played
through a NAD 541i. Although the 805 Matrix are no longer made, they're still held in high esteem and I'm very happy
with my combination. They cost $1600 new for the pair.

I helped my dad pick out speakers for a new NAD-based system (C370, cd/dvd, tuner). We listened to a lot of speakers,including several of the B&W speakers mentioned above. We stumbled upon a used pair of Thiel .5 speakers which we both really liked (despite having very different musical tastes). Despite their diminutive size, they throw out a big, sweet sound. They pop up from time to time here on Audiogon. Good luck and have fun.

Thanks all for the input. I am 200 miles from the nearest audio shop here so realistically I knew I would not be likely to make the trip. So after checking around on Agon and elsewhere I have made my decision. I have ordered Green Mountain Europas.
Next, Signal double run cables (not bi-wireable) and then
stands.
Okay, will come back when I get the new speakers set up and
can give an inital report (can't wait)!

Abbeydog...you wont be sorry...GMA rules...checkout Osiris stands on Audiogon..good luck

FYI - I have C370 and 541i CD player temed up with german Audio Physic Yara floor standing speakers. Finally picked these after auditioning about a dozen pairs of speakers including B&W, J&M labs, Linn etc. etc. The Yara's fit my ear and the NAD's perfectly - but are $1995 US.

I am very happy.
