Best monitor for HT

I am looking for 5 mini/monitor speakers for a small high-end home theater setup. The speakers I have thought of are B&W 805, Legacy Studio, Sonus Faber Concerto, and the new Mobile Fidelity OML-1.

I am a curent B&W owner and this is the 805 only speaker on the list I can listen to locally. I'm wondering if anyone else has had the opportunity to compare any of these speakers or has other recommendations. I want to stay under $2K/pair.

Sounds like a lot of support for the 805. I thought maybe I'd hear a lot of folks pitchning the Taylor Taylo or VR-1. Dolby Digital audio and solid state amps can definitely create a bright/harsh sound, but I don't want speakers that will attempt to compensate for that. (That is what THX re-eq is for, if anything at all)

Looks like I'll be going for the B&W. Thanks!
