Can you give some indication why you might choose to start from the speakers? Not that I'm suggesting it's wrong, rather just to understand your rationale?

hn:I am building a new set starting from the speakers. i listen to Jazz , Bossa Nova, Light Rock and Classicalthe only speakers ive heard from your list are the cremonas and their well suited to your tastes

If I was starting a system around speakers, with your music taste, I wouldn't hesitate to start with the Thiel Cs 1.6 - A stunning speaker, such a beautiful midrange, and works so well the more you spend on the front end. Not many stockists, but it's worth hunting them out!

Heard the B&Ws 805 s, and they sound very "Hi Fi" but lose that foot tapping magic, the hairs on the back of your neck feeling which the Thiels have in spades.

I would go for the outrigger stands also - they make a difference !

If I was building a system starting with the speakers, my shortlist wouldn't be that short....
