Curious what people think is the best "value" high end speaker (~5K to 15K)


I am on a long search for speakers and just curious what people think is the best value both new or used in speakers ranging from around $5000 to $15000? I have a set of Paradigm S8's (V1) and love them but looking for another set for another set in a different listening area (25 x 20?, maybe larger).  I love the full sound of JBL's and looking for something in that range (it also helps that JBL's seem to hold their value better than most, which will be a consideration). The only drawback to JBL is footprint.  I prefer a smaller footprint which is why after reading I hope to listen to several B&W 800 series but open to suggestions across the board.  used Watt Puppies? Revels?  I am curious about peoples experience with McIntosh XR100's.

... I'll say one thing, if I walked into an audio store with the intent of purchasing speakers there and bo1972 was my salesman, I would run out the door as fast as I could.
Beware the audio guru.

Please stop only focusing on products and brands. Try to learn what sound is ...
Hey, bo, please check the title of this thread:

That is why posters here are "focusing on products and brands." That is what’s under discussion here.
