Candidates for best speakers in the $2000-5000 market

I’m asking for listeners’ experience in this bracket, buttressed by reviews and/or data; I am not a fan of "whatever sounds good to you." Ultimately, yes, that will be the case. But in getting to that point, I’m looking to benefit from the advantage of a thousand pairs of ears rather than mine alone. Those ears can include the inanimate. Thank you.

My experience has included my own Elac 403, Elac 407, and Dynaudio Special 40. Auditions have included various Sonus Faber, and Magico. All of this is in preparation for justifying the leap for an Electa Amator lll or its equivalent. But that’s for another day, another forum.

Interesting. I'd have said get those SF Electra Amators based on sound quality, and change amps if necessary. I saw the comment on 'interior designer' and cannot argue with most SF, and those for sure. (I'd also 2nd JA Pulsars, etc.) I'd base amplification on the speaker sound you ultimately desire.  

Nice to know you have two good sub options to fill out a good pair of stand mounted speakers.  Have fun and let us know on the new ones. I've totally enjoyed some Harbeths at shows. The Super HL5 should be fun.
