Best new or used speakers for under 3K?

I am redoing my sound system and am looking for new main speakers. The center, surrounds, and a good sub will come later. For now I want to focus on high quality mains. I have already received the Integra DHC 9.9 pre/pro and the B&K 200.7 amp is on the way. I want to run a 5.1 system bi-amping the mains. I have been looking hard at the PSB Synchrony One's and the cheapest I have found them is about $3,600 +S/H. I need some suggestions from you guys. My room is about 12' X 14'.

For a room that size, I would think a small floor stander or a larger stand mount speaker would suffice. Under 3K and with the power you are going to have on hand, I suggest:

small towers

EPOS M16i
Totem Hawk
Quad 21L2 or 22L2
Devore Gibbon 8
Focal Chorus 816V or 826V
PSB Imagine T
B&W CM7

Monitors

Usher Be-718
PSB Synchrony Two B (why not?)
Dynaudio Focus 140
Aeriel Acoustics 5B
Revel Performa M22
Totem Model One Signature
