Best pair of $ 1500 speakers to match with Rotel?

I hope this isn't too boring of a question but I just bought a Rotel 1072 CD player and am contemplating buying their 1062 integrated amp, which will leave $ 1500. in my small budget for speakers. Any suggestions? I'd consider buying used. I'm afraid the Axiom M80TI's at $1300 are too good to be true. Are they? I currently have B&W P5's that I bought 12 years ago, but they now seem rather polite and lacking bass. Anyone care to share their wisdom? Many thanks!!!

OK-- any suggestions for a "better integrated"? NAD C370? Or?

Thanks, guys! There is so much gear out there-- it can really be overwhelming. I hadn't heard of the Merlins. I will look into them. Do you think the NAD C320bee provides more bang for the buck than the Rotel RA1062? Any thoughts on direct-order speaker quality (Axiom, Onix) as opposed to brick-and-mortar brands?
