Full-range recommendations

Hi all,

Looking for recs for a good full-range speaker, used, in the $3-4K range, maybe a bit more if it's worth it. I want these to be speakers I keep for 20 years or so.

My listening room for the next few years is quite small: 11x14x7; however, we'll move in a bout five years and I anticipate having a bigger listening room.

I'm running a 150w/ch LSA Statement integrated and listen to a variety of jazz, folk-rock, rock, and piano through a Rotel 1072 cd and a Pro-Ject 5.1SE tt.

I like a warm, open sound. My current monitors are Reference 3A de Capo i's. Beautiful monitors, but lacking in the bass extension - and I'm loathe to use a sub. What i don't want is a dry, neutral sound.

Let me know what other questions I would need to answer, and thank you for your advice.

Simao, in New Mexico I have a 13 x 10 x 8 listening room. I use the LSA1 Statements close to the corners and have use the LSA Statement amp along with other amps and preamps there.

But there is one thing that made my room a joy. It is the Zilplex eleven cups in this room. I heard Diana Krall move from my too closed in room to the full stage for Live in Paris. Set up your room exactly as shown in their directions.

I would just keep the Reference 3As, but I do know how great the LSA1 Statements sound
