Harbeth sound with high wife acceptance factor?

I fell in love today with the Harbeth C7s.

Unfortunately, my wife did not.

She doesn't like speakers on stands, she doesn't like big speakers. But she did like the sound ;-)

Any suggestions for a small floorstander with Harbeth sound and better looks? We listened to the Dali Mentor 6 - the looks were great, the sounds was good, but it was just not as musical as the Harbeth.

Budget is around $3,000 - any suggestions?

How about the Ohm 5's that are listed at 2900.00 in burl finish;I have not heard these but reviews and owners here love them and that finish looks very nice to me.
Another speaker that may pass the waf test would be Merlin.
What power is going to be driving the speaker?

Mapman thanks for adding to my suggestion as I have been thinking of them for myself.
I do normally run tubes but I have a pair of jeff roland model 6 monoblocks;any idea how those may match with the ohm's?
