Default Montille aurieges speaker pairing?

Just about to pick up this combo. Whats a good match for speakers? Want to keep the budget in the 5k range, cheaper is always fine. Familiar with the devore line but not sure what else works well. Right now in an apt but will be moving to a house. Current room is about 12x18. Listen to blues, jazz, rock, some classical.

I have the same set-up with WLM speakers. Works very well.

Vintage Altec Valencia/Flamenco could work very well too. Many other options - I suspect others will chime in.
I never heard the Omega speakers with Shindo (made in Norwalk CT) but those could sound pretty good I think.

I have used Klipsch La Scalas and Hawthorne Silver Iris OBs successfully with the Montille/Aurieges combo.....

Right now I'm in love with the Tekton Lores I got in January.....sweet!

The A23 755a are very special. You will want to talk to the dealer to make sure they suit the music you will want to use them for. They are not for everything. They also require a good 300 to 500 hrs to break in. They are amazing speakers.

Hi,
I am sorry to put it here. I cant start a new thread. I bought a used Montille El84 and its time to change the tubes. I dont see any bias pot on the amp. Anyone konws if it is auto bias or the bias pots is hidden somewhere inside the amp.
Thanks,
Calvin

There is sweet looking pair of Altec Valencias and a really nice looking pair of more expensive Altec 604 coaxial driver based speakers on audiogon as I type. Either would be excellent. The Werner Jagusch autoformer based crossover on the later is attractive.

Listened to the line magnetic 755 field coils. Sounded fantastic. Only concern i have is with a baby is how do you prevent them from getting curious with the power supplies?
