I have to give the nod as well to the ProAc 1SC's - I have heard them with some Audio Research tube amps doing the heavy lifting, and I could not believe the music that these little buggers put out. And mind you, it was on a very demanding classical recording - no where to hide.
Under $ 2,000 they can not be touched.
Others - like the Rogers Ls3/5A's, for example, do some things really well - like image. But for a coherent and detailed sound with enough guts to makes you think there is a sub hiding somewhere, it's the ProAcs.
