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.

If you have a smaller sized room, check out the KEF LS50 Meta + KEF KC62 sub. I bought the LS50 Meta as a backup speaker after my old LS50 got damaged. The plan was to buy the $10K USD Yamaha NS3000 monitor from Canada. It is very much like the NS5000 that is sold in the USA, but for smaller rooms. 

However, after hearing the KEF pairing, I realized the money for the NS3000 was better kept in my pocket.
