Hi

It will help if you could tell us your budget, room size and whether you prefer stand mounts or floorstanders.

No problem, just helps us with if you can add as much info as possible.

I haven't heard Linn amps for years, but if memory serves me right I think they very transparent and open. You have AE's at the moment, so my suggestion would be a very neutral speaker, like Spendor S3's (standmounted) or S5E (floorstanding). I know the 5's are on offer at Sevenoaks's Brighton branch, although they are over budget £799.

However, others may have better suggestions.
