I would appreciate some speaker suggestions

I haven't been involved in stereo for a quarter of a century. I am going to assume that speakers have made some significant strides in this time frame. I currently listen to four Kef 105.2 speakers. I have them set up where I can switch between 2 or 4 speakers (1-2 per side in stereo) depending on the material I listen to. I have no issue with buying used or older speakers. Ten year old speakers would be new to me. In general, I like the sound of the old Kef's especially the midrange but I believe the high and low end could be better. I appreciate any help and insight you can give me on a speaker upgrade. I would be playing both CDs and records. I listen to all types of music. My budget is about 2.5K for the speakers but would prefer to spend less than 2K. Once again, thanks for the help. Regards, Gary

Thanks for all the help and suggestions. My current room is about 22' x 15' but that may change soon because I might be moving. My equipment is old. I do intend to upgrade over time. I have a 80's vintage denon amp. I just bought a quad cdp-2 cd player because I wanted the DAC feature for some of my other digital components. I will probably buy a integrated amp at some point.

I've tried to read some of the other responses from people asking similar questions. I see some people who seem to like certain speakers quite a bit. For example, (I never heard of the brand) but it appears that a few people are outspoken for Dunlavy. Any input on planar speakers or electrostatic.

Regards,
Gary

I pretty much listen to everything other than country music - classical, blues, jazz, classic rock. It will vary from day to day so I want a good all around speaker. I forgot to mention. I have an older rega planar 3 with a mm cartridge for listening to albums.
