Bookshelf speakers $2500 or less

I'm putting together a system with bookshelf speakers for my office at work. Detailed midrange and treble are important. Big bass not important, since I don't want to disturb the neighbors.

I heard some Amphion Argon2s and liked them. Any other suggestions?

Haven't thought much about electronics yet, but considering the new Manley StingRay 2 or MantaRay integrated. Source will be PC+USB DAC. I mainly listen to jazz and jazz vocals, plus some blues, rock and classical.

Thanks!

If it's for near wall, I would look hard at the Norths. I just put together a pair of Eskas,another North "near wall specific" design, which do seem to work very well close to the wall. (No one else I could find builds speakers for that application.) Lee Taylor makes beautiful boxes and is very helpful, btw, and I'd use him, and for a few bucks extra, custom veneer fron certainlywood.com I'm enjoying my Norths a lot, in every regard. John
