Replace my Usher be718 ?

May want to replace my Usher be718 Beryllium bookshelfs, what would you look at in the $3 thousand range. In that price range the Usher is best I've heard... but always looking to improve..not enough room for floor models. Speakers not in a shelf, but close to corners of the room...

Agree with Jasper.

The Ushers are dry and lifeless.

Audiofeil are u referring to the many many Taiwan direct import specimens floating around or the ones with the better crossover aka the non-gray market imports?
I have listened to both and they sound completely different from each other.
I bet the ushers are power hogs simply because the cheapie inductors used for the woofers are quite lossy.
