Picking Speakers 20k-30k
Recently built a HiFi System with much help from this site, now I’m looking at upgrades. Strongly considering an all-Aavik system but looking at speaker options before I pull the trigger on anything, hence the following question: If you were buying new speakers in the 20-30k range (used or new), what’s on your shortlist?

If it helps the conversation: 21’X 19’ treated listening room with cathedral ceiling. Listen to a wide variety of music.
thanks for your expertise!
