I use to have a pair of Thiel 5i's (same price range) and they were nice, but the key word is use to. Once I heard the Revel Ultima Salons- WOW ! You are right Evansdad about the Talon speakers. I did some serious listening to there Flagship model Khorus and was not taken. The Tannoy Churchill is a decent speaker too in the same price range. Very efficient for a big speaker and big bass.
