High Quality bi-amp-able full range speakers - choices?

I use 4 monoblocks to power my Artemis Eos 2.1 speakers and I am very happy.  However, I have had these speakers for a long while (6 years or so) and am looking around for what I might want to replace them with.  I seek full-range speakers that I can get for less than 20k used or new.

As I indicated I want to bi-amp these speakers, but it is fine if they already have powered bass modules with volume adjustability.   Most mid to high-end speakers don't allow for bi-amping these days and that is all fine but not my choice.  I like the sound of class d on the low frequencies and tubes for mid and top frequencies and would like to continue in that way.  I would like to keep my current amps (Jolida Fusion monoblocks, and Wyred 4 Sound mAmps).  I am sure that they provide plenty of power for any speakers suitable for my 19 x 20 x 13 ft room.

So far the only choices that I have found are TAD CR-1's, and Revel Ultima Salon 2.  I am sure there are many more but it is hard to see the speaker connections online.  Please give me more options.

Johnsonwu,
Thanks for that unexpected response.  Do you have any specific info on re-capping the x-overs?

Shadorne,
ATC fully powered speakers sounds like an interesting option to look into, Thanks.

David-Ten,
I call your attention to the first paragraph of my original post.

Reubent,
I use an external crossover between the pre-amp and the bass amps, it is a dbx 234xs.  I have it set to the volume and frequency that I think best match the tops and bottoms.  I have had a lot of people listen to my system and there is agreement that there is smooth frequency response across the range.  Backed up by my simple measurements.  No issue.
