Which Budget Friendly Floorstanders Next?


I just let go of my Monitor Audio Silver 6's and am in the market for something new.  I am aware that some of these might not fill the 6's shoes, but I really just want to try something new, something fresh, and something different.

Here are the options:

KEF Q700
Wharfedale 10.7 (Cheapest Option)
Focal Chorus 716
ELAC Uni-Fi U5 Slim

Thoughts?  Suggestions?

I have mentioned this kit here twice on this forum before and probably will again.  I know of no other speaker that you can buy new for less that 2 to 3 times the cost of this kit.  It is fairly simple to build and the designer is good enough to be hired at ANY speaker manufacturer.  The parts cost alone if buying these parts separately are considerably more than this kit cost.  The crossover is well thought out..... but they are 4 ohm and would require an amp with reasonable current.
