Decware Torii owners: speaker recommendations?


After six months without speakers and a move to a larger listening room, I’m finally ready to start shopping again. I've most recently owned Philharmonic Audio 2’s, which were fantastic, but didn't provide the dynamics and emotional connection I’m looking for when paired with my current equipment.

I’m looking for dynamics, realism, emotion, a big sound stage and holographic imaging. I want to be “floating” in the music per se. My new room is an exposed basement room measuring 17’ x 23’ with open hallways on both ends and multiple windows with a sliding glass door. I plan on adding room treatments soon after moving in. My listening preferences are all over the board but lean heavily towards classic rock, throwing in some jazz, pop, and solo guitar music along the way.

My chain consists of: PC > Wyred DAC 2 (no upgrades yet) > Decware Torii MkIV w/EL34’s

I’ve always wanted to try the high sensitivity game and am driving myself crazy trying to decide between the following:

Zu Omen Def
Zu Soul Superfly
GoldenEar Triton II
Tekton Pendragon
Spatial Hologram M2 Turbo’s
DIY Audio Nirvana Alnico 12’s

I live in Southern WI, so my options for hearing these speakers are very limited. I have demoed the Triton II’s and loved the disappearing act; those things imaged like crazy, I just want to make sure I’m not missing out with any of my other options and they are on the lower end of high sensitivity.

Has anyone heard these types of speakers that can make a comparison between pairs? I’m open to any other recommendations as well.

Thanks in advance for your help.
