Cameron,
I think you really need to give the Rockport Ankaa a listen. It retails for about the same price as those two speakers and I would say without a doubt outperforms both. I have listened to all those speakers you mentioned plus much more.
To be honest I even prefer the Ankaa's over the Wilson Maxx 3's, despite Maxx3's having a slightly bigger soundstage and more "holographic" imaging. The Ankaas in my opinion has the sheer musical naturabeads, beauty, timber etc that not many speakers can match at this price. It swings way bigger than it's price tag which I cannot say for most speakers out there.
