Welcome to the forum.
You really will have to audition yourself, the speakers are in a completely different price bracket and will depend on the size of your listening room and your ears.
Sorry cannot be more helpful but don't forget to budget for some decent speaker stands if you do not already own some.

I’ve got my supersized triangles playing with a 50w Arcam A70 and they are sounding very nice together. Along with a meridian CD player that I have on loan, and may just keep. 🙂

But the Arcam SA10 is very affordable, and could possibly work well with the little triangle borea.

maybe but its almost twice the price of the Marantz.
Saying that it would match the Borea BR03 well....

That can always be an issue when we see a bargain here in the UK and assume it's going to be available elsewhere....A deal costs half, but I'm in Italy and there is customs, VAT, shipping ....

Just a thought.
Don't any dealers in Italy have a 'used' list? In the UK a lot of dealers have either ex-demo or old stock they want to shift, often you'll have to ask.
One of the dealers I use has this, for example.
Triangle br03 are also in the shopping Limit, I listened to the B&W 606 Anniversary Edition But with a naim amp and never with the marantz I found the B&W 606 online with its stands at 800€ against the average 1000

Based on experience, I'd warmly recommend Dali speakers with the Marantz. The Oberon 1s are great in a small room, or the Oberon 3s offer more scale in a larger room.
Monitor Audios also work well with the Marantz, though my experience suggests care is needed with their current range. The only ones I've really liked are the Silver 50s. Some of their other current designs can sound smeared and lack clarity. A pre-owned pair of Bronze 2/BR2/BX2 would be a good option.

May I ask you how they pair with the amp?
I'm on the market to get an amp and speakers and I found a deal for BR03 2nd hand for 300€ and I'm thinking about getting the Marantz.
Thanks in advance.

You might have to find out for yourself, the OP hasn't been seen since his initial post over a year ago.

The Op doesn't appear to be active, but can tell you they are a great match.
If I were in the market for a new amp and speakers in that budget, I would go Triangle Borea BR03 & Marantz PM6007.
I heard them in a blind test and loved them. I tagged along with a friend who was auditioning. They went for Q Acoustics (I forget which one as their numbers get confusing) and the PM6007 but I thought the Triangle were the best. The third speaker were Mission. All three were good.
