Best Holographic Speakers ~$7k per pair

Hello,

I am currently shopping for a whole new system. I demoed Klipsch Cornwall's and Fyne 502SP's. They were both great in their own regard however I was won over by the Fyne Audio 502SP's because of the holographic illusion they were able to generate. I demoed them with a Music Fidelity M6si amp and Bluenote Icon streamer.

They are currently at the top of my list but this is a big investment and I want to make sure I do my due diligence before pulling the trigger.

I am interested to know if there are any other speakers in this price range i should be checking out before making my decision? I listen to a wide variety of music including electronic, classic rock, indy rock,  hip-hop, orchestral music etc... 

In addition to the holographic nature of the 502SP's I also liked the clarity and punch they gave. I have read about the Ascend Audio ELX towers, Mofi 888's and Tannoy Arden's, but only seem to be able to set up a demo of the Mofi 888's which i plan on doing soon. I live in the LA area if that helps. 

Thanks for your help

I would move upscale with KEF and try the stunning Reference 1 speakers (not sure how much they cost where you live!). 

There are scientific reasons why speakers that try to emulate a point source of sound have the 'holographic' qualities you are looking for.  I would add that they reduce the need for room treatment and have very large sweet spots.  To get a handle on why, have a look at KEF's 40+ page whitepaper on the Reference series.
