Speaker recomendations please

Hi there, I've been looking to replace my existing speakers but I'm having a terrible time finding what I want. I have a complete Myryad system,MCD200 cdp, MP100 pre-amp and the MA240 power-amp at 120 watts/ch at 8 ohms. I'm looking for a full range speaker with good weight at the bottom end, Music preference is Jazz and Alternative Rock with some Electronica. Budget is approx. $1500-2000.
Any suggestions ?

I've recently discovered an amazing young company that is changing the rules of the game in this category, and raising the bar. Check out Zu. As in Zu Cable. I just replaced my Linn Aktiv Kaber system with Zu Druid Mk4's (powered by Nuforce, yet another amazing new-ish company), and they blow away anything I've heard in 20 years. And the Druids are perfectly in your price range. Can't say enough about them.

the von schweikert line of speakers offer very good value for the money- they're accurate as well as musical, and offer deep bass as if "it's not even a big deal". i bought a pair of VS's without hearing them 1st, something i would normally NEVER consider. but everything people told me about the sound was true- very resolving while staying true to the sound of real instruments. for less than $5k (retail), you can get a truly full-range speaker; that's pretty amazing.
