Building a system and need some imput on speakers

When in doubt go ask the experts...Im going to build a 2 channel system and im starting with a speaker purchase..My room is 19'-14' w/10' ceilings.After combing the different sites several speakers seem to be favs amoung users..Wilson shopia2..Dynaudio C4..Revel studio2..Focal diva utopia b,1037b..B&W 802D,803D.My buget is around 8-9K (buying used)..I listen to all formats jazz/pop/classical/rock..Want a system to sound natural like real music should.Sorry, dont know all the buzz words but I want it to present it self as musical as possible.If possible im looking for advise from users of these speakers only,their srong and weak points.Im mid west located and personal auditions are going to be tough and want to save money and time..thanks in advance

I'm a very satisfied owner of Dynaudio C4's. My room is similar in size as your room (21' x 16' x 7'). C4's in your room will greatly benefit from room treatments.... failure to treat a room your size will result in the C4's overpowering the room and you will be dissappointed. I recommend GIK Acoustics room treatments... $600 to $900 spent on room treatments is one of the best investments you can make in optimizing your speakers. I also recommend the Plinius SA-102 amp with an Aesthetix Calypos preamp with NOS tubes (Telefunken 12AX7 smoothplates or Mullard CV4004's)

The Wilson Sophia's powered with tube gear would also be a fine choice and may be better suited for a room of your size.
