Searching for the most "accurate" speaker (below 15K)

Thanks for the reply. I’m pursuing a different sound philosophy, though … There good things (from my perspective) in the best examples of the modern speakers: speed, transparency, tonal accuracy, dynamics (both micro and macro). I find the Magico Q Series as a perfect example of the qualities I’m after … but in a different price point. In fact, I’m looking for a poor man’s Q Series ;)

+1 Harbeth!

Thanks yogyboy ... Unfortunately I have no chance of auditioning the harbeths as they're not available where I live. They look old school ... But they may very well sound otherwise :)

Hello Vermeer,
    If accuracy to the source is your goal then get the best ATC's that fit within your budget. ATC drivers are some of the best made, the magnet assembly on their SL midrange weighs about 20 lbs. ATC's are also extremely dynamic and can handle a lot of power. In fact, one caveat would be that they need a lot of power; while ATC's are known to be an easy 8 ohm load throughout the audioband, they are not known for their efficiency. 
   At last years AXPONA, AVM was demoing about $60k worth of gear through a $7,000 pair of ATC SCM 40's. The room sounded great. I asked the rep why he was using such a modest pair of speakers and he indicated was showcasing AVM with its startling clarity and accuracy and needed a speaker that would simply pass this through to the listener. I couldn't imagine a better, if offhand, recommendation for a pair of speakers.

A lot of great suggestions already herein and I'm sure some others will chime in with even more options to consider. Might as well include Golden Ear Triton Reference as something to think about.
