Sonus Faber Maxima Amator without the fancy

Aesthetics?  Love the sound but want to see if there’s something just like it without the fancy leather, marble stand and walnut casings.  I’m really new to this and shopping for speakers for my 11x22 space at home.  Tried these out in a store and they’re amazing but don’t care about t he fancy design.  Would love some advice!  Want to make it sound like the band is basically in my room, would love some pointers

Budget, kind of music, how loud do you listen? 
 

Lots of good to great speakers for less money but none are likely to sound exactly like the ones you heard. Maybe better maybe worse but totally subjective.

I’m a deadhead but I also love blues, reggae, jazz, folk, most kinds.  I’d spend 10-15k on the set up if necessary, I want them to sound like these speakers but without the fancy design.

Doesn’t need to be super loud, I’m fortunate to have dense walls but still don’t want to bother my neighbors by going crazy

Also do I really need acoustic panels for the walls?  Hardwood floor with some carpet, walls are plaster
