Klipsch Vs axiom

I have a pair of axiom m-60s right now and absolutely love them. The only problem is that they are a little lacking in dynamics (i listen to mostly rock). I was thinking of "upgrading" these 6.5" woofers to something with 8" or 10" woofers. The only problem is that any true full range hi end speaker with 10 or 8 inch woofers are going to be 5k+. I wanted to keep it under $2500, and was considering klipsch rf-7s or rf-83s. Has anyone ever heard these, or compared them to any other more "high end" speakers

Thanks

While Klipsch Reference series(RF-7,RF-83,etc) are not considered "high end" speakers, they do offer great dynamics,high sensitivity, and excellent bang for the buck factor. For what it's worth, the RF-7's will knock you out of your seat with 2 channel and HT. The RF-83's are nearly as dynamic with smoother mids and highs. I would recommend an amp that is on the neutral/warmer side like B&K, NAD, or Marantz to help tame the highs a bit.
