I'm sorry I don't have a direct answer to your comparison question, but I'm curious what brands you have available, locally, to audition? Are you in Denmark? I know that Amphion is a decent Finnish company and that Harbeth sells in Scandinavia. (How about Tannoy? Spendor?)
$7k is a lot for bookshelves and your desire to hear other speakers in that range is a good instinct.
What else is in that range and available, locally?
