Seeking Speaker Suggestions for Cary 805c


Please offer speaker suggestions for Cary 805c amps driven by a Wadia 850 CD player.

I am primarily interested in small-ish floorstanders under $4,000. Either new or used is fine.

I listen to all kinds of music, but primarily jazz, acoustic, and rock.

I am upgrading from Quad ESL-63's becuase, as much as I love the Quad's, it is time for bass, volume, dynamics.

So far, I have auditioned Von Schweikert VR4's, Vandersteen 2Ce's, Triangle Celius, Meadowlark Osprey, and Usher AC-10. I am also considering Chesky C-1's and Soliloquy 6.3's, but can't audition either of those.

I would prefer a speaker that errs to the side of sweet, polite, and even dark, rather than bright and/or analytical. Obviously, after the Quads, midrange is very important to me as well. I'm looking for something easy to listen to and completely free of fatigue.

I am starting to narrow my choices to Vandersteen or Soliloquy. I loved the Usher's, but they are just too big for my room. I would love to hear comments from anyone owning any of the above speakers, or anyone that has found a speaker that achieves a great synergy with the Cary 805's. All suggestions and input is welcome

Thanks in advance,
Jeff

You may want to consider the Silverline Sonatas. You may be able to find them here on A'gon at $4k or less.
I owned the Sonun Faber Electa Amator I's and they would work great. I think you may want to investigate the new Gallo Reference III's. They would work with the power and might be a great match.
I would recomend Proarc 2.5's. Great speakers and sound wonderful with the 805's.
