For your tastes, room size, associated gear and budget, you simply cannot do better than a used pair of Vandersteen 2CE or, if you're patient, even the Signatures. (A pair was just listed today for $1,000 exactly.)
*Disclaimer, I don't own, sell or in any way benefit from promoting Vandersteen products.
There's a lot to like about the Vandys and little to dislike or find fault. You get a true full range, dynamic, smooth, airy and best of all, musical speaker for very little $$.
