Anybody heard Reimer Teton speakers?

My system consists of Thor Audio TPA-150 tubed monoblocks,
TA-2000 Preamp, with Quad 988 electrostatic speakers. I use a VPI Scoutmaster and a Cary 306/200 as a transport, with a Thor Audio Dac. I am seeking to trade in my Quad 988's for a true full range. My price range maximum is $15,000.00. But lately many people on this site have been
recommending Tyler Acoustics top of the line speaker which is on sale for $10,200.00 and sells factory direct (STereo Times loved it after hearing at the latest show)
furthermore, some people have recommended the Reimer Teton
which sells for about $6000.00 a pair. I spoke to one person who loves tham but did not compare it with any other speakers. I already spent $6500.00 on the Quad 988, while it is excellent in many respects it is not a true full fange speaker. Can this $6000.00 speaker The Reimer give me what I'm looking for at a very low price as compared to Sound Lab, Vandersteen, Wilson, Etc.?
Any comments would be appreciated.

I have what is perhaps a naive question:

Why wouldn't the 'standard' version of the Reimer speakers sound better than the GS version since the Standard version uses the more prestigious Morel drivers?

Personally, when I think of HIVI Research, I think of rather inexpensive drivers that can be purchased at Parts Express --- when I think of Morel drivers I think high-end.

Again, perhaps it is naive of me to ask.

Thank you
