speakers under 1,500 excellent top to bottom sound


I am looking to upgrade from Alon II speakers to improve soundstage, bass, and overall sound. I use a Mccormack DNA-1 ss amp with tube pre-amp. I don't want boomy bass, but to be able to fell it at mpderate volume. My room size is 14 x 19.

I 've read soom good things about Von schweikert and Thiel. I don't have the space to keep the speakers 4' away from the wall.

But a pair of very slightly used Magnepan 1.7's and keep them 30 inches from the wall.
Alon IV's available in South Carolina on the Audio Circle site for $1000 if you are in a hurry ... if not, a pair of V's will show if you are patient. The Alon V is one of the best "bang for your buck" speakers available on the used market. I just HATE the way they look but since you already own the II's that is a non-issue for you!
