Best 40 to 50k used speakers

I'd buy the best used Estelon speaker I could afford, even if I had to wait for newer models to becomes available used.  There's something deeply satisfying in their presentation of music.

I can 2nd the recommendation for PMC MB2 SE if you have the room - they play everything wonderfully at all volume levels in my room - but if I was going to buy these again - I would go with active instead of passive - even though I’m extremely happy with my preamp / dac and amps - 

My two cents, I have a pair of Alexia (1), Borresen O-5 and am not far from France ;-)

Assuming the $40K - $50K is your assumed new speaker price, I went through a similar exercise a year or so back. Also, we have about the same size rooms. My top contenders in no particular order were:
- Vandersteen 7 Mk II
- Vivid Audio Giya G2 S2
- Evolution Acoustics MM3
- Wilson Audio Alexia Mk II
- Magico S3 Mk II

After hearing all above I purchased the Giyas which, to my ears were the most cohesive (blending of drivers), effortless at any level, accurate (not warm or sterile) of the bunch. I may have bought the Vandys if I could have found a pair used. I think I liked the Vandys highs better than the Vivids but the Vivids play louder more effortlessly and cleaner than the Vandys. YMMV

Whatever from Tidal you can afford in your budget. Specially if you're from Germany - easy to check out German speakers.
