HELP One pair for $2k Recommendations Please


I have $2k set aside for a pair of floorstanding FULL RANGE speakers. Subwoofer in the near future. I've done a ton of research and seem to get nowhere. I currently have an Adcom GFA555II amp (200w/ch RMS), and Denon Receiver to power the new speakers.

I mainly listen to rock and jazz. 2-Channel is more important to me that HT.

Here's what I'm looking for in speakers...and not necessarily in order of preference.

1. Musical accuracy.
2. Able to play at loud levels (I like to sometimes FEEL the music)
3. Nice bass extension.
4. Clear highs and mids.
5. Good build quality.

Suggestions anyone? The 2k mark is the magic number.

THANKS!!!

Trianglezerious has the right idea about changing receiver and looking at the good value speakers in the $1k range. A good used preamp could be obtained, possibly tubed, to take some of the adcom harshness away.
