What are the best speakers for Mahler?

I really love Mahler symphony. But I was never happy with the sound of any system so far.(I am still newbie though)

Does anybody have any recommendations for the speakers?

Happy listening

I have them, and they do--but they need a high current amp (Plinius is his recommendation). There is a pair right now on Audiogon, $2750, I think; about $4000 new. If you live near N. VA you are welcome to come hear them, if you want, Good luck, David

In my bedroom,relatively large I have JMlab utopia 5 speaker system does a decent job on Mahler but no comparison with the german physics setup.
