A number of audiophiles on AudioAsylum use the Cronus Magnum. You may want to post a question about a speaker match regarding it on their amp or speaker form. I'm sure you'll get some good sound advice.

I was afraid someone was going to ask that ;^)

I haven't landed on the final pair yet but am using a pair of Infinity monitors. I'd love to hear what other monitors folks are pairing with the Cronus M2
