The Acoustic Zen Adagio has no competition for overall
musicality and balance in the 4k price range . For SUre the MAggi 3.6 is probably better in some respects ,as far as inner detail , musicality with dynamics the Adagio is better ,as to with the bass. that is the best 1-2 punch in the industry!

Tyler Acoustics Linbrook System 2 - good imaging and sounstage, clear, rich and natural sound, brings out the detail in the music

Vandersteen 2Ce Signature and TWO 2Wq subwoofers. Total price retail is about $4,500 with stands. But I think most dealers would work with you on the price if you buy that much product from them. Now you must have a big room to make it all work. But if you can swing it and if you have a really good dealer to help you set them up, (As I'm sure you already know, you can't just plop a system like this into your room and expect it to work. It will take a great deal of work to set them up properly.) and make them work in your room; then you will have a system that will be just about as good as it gets. Good Luck with whatever you choose!
