Decisions on standmounts: ATC, Dynaudio, ProAc, Sonus Faber

I’m considering the following speakers models:
ATC SCM19 V2
Dynaudio Contour S1.4
ProAc Tablette 10 Signature
Sonus Faber Sonetto II

Currently I’m listening to a pair of Wharfedale Denton 80th Anniversarry, everything so musical and well done with this speakers, it sound sweet smooth engaging if powerd by a Class D Audio SDS-470C with upgraded power supply, it sound near to neutral with very accurate dimensional Hi-Fi details if powerd by an NAD M22 v2 power amp. Having said that, I would like to have another set of speakers to play with, most probably I would something that sound balanced from top to bottom, while not too clinical analytical or too lush warm sounding to begin with. For critical listening, usually I’m using the Sennheiser HD 600, source signal from Fostex HP-A3 DAC/preamp. I will save a FLAC file if i like/love a track, then I will also convert it to mp3 vbr0 as another copy for car playback.

"I think I'll skip Harbeth M30.1 as there is review even my Wharfedale Denton sound similar, "
 OP if you believe this then do yourself a favor and forget an upgrade because that makes the Denton's WORLD CLASS according to every single professional review ever written about the M30.1's!
 If you want mid forward tone Dynaudio will fit the bill.

The Harbeth P3ESR just might fit the bill! They are my favorite stand mount!

@freediver  @yogiboy  I think I have mentioned I'm not looking for an upgrade? Did I? I'm looking to hear something more neutral, I believe Harbeth speakers are musical, having said that no perfect speakers, I heard a pair of Harbeth SHL5 Plus speakers, I think it's a bit bright due to the metal tweeters, guess need proper matching with some gears too. I believe M30.1 is the more appropriate musical speakers for most people, but then I already got something similar which is the Wharfedale Denton, the price difference is so huge too, so for that reason I would not spend too much to get a similar sound.
