Advice from Audiogon family - best speaker $3k-$4k

New or used?  What sound characteristics are most important to you?

Same question as @soix , I would add that McIntosh has been known to sound very good with B&W's, a friend has that setup and it's a nice match up, so if you can, take a listen to some B&W's. Sonus Faber has a very good reputation,so nothing wrong there either.

I myself have had Mc and Bluseound equipment in the past, but have never owned B&W's. Just FYI.

I have listen to Sonus Faber and I like them.  Advice?

you've answered your own question, if you like them after hearing them, what advice do you need?

I am open to either new or used.  I currently own a pair of B&W 804 D3.  I like them a lot and they are paired with McIntosh and Levinson.  I live in Seattle.  We seem to have a limited variety in this price range.
