Looking for a good full range floor stander


Hello all.  Making a good two way system for a 20 x 40x 12 high room budget 12k to 16 k.  Powered by a bryston 14b cubed amp.  Have a surround system with Golden ear ref and surrounds powered by parasound a21 for mains  and Carver cinema grand for surrounds. Like the GEs  The speakers I'm looking for will be for music only lots of jazz (female vocalist a fav), classical, classic rock and roll (70's and up).  I have heard good things about proac k6, Joseph audio, and a few others but am not within 4 hours of audition range.  Real interested in people in the know about the proac or suggestions.  Thanks in advance.

Oh I forgot to mention this is a true two way system just like you were asking about. It comes with passive crossovers or you can go active which I have discovered is the way to squeeze the best potential out of your system. Talk is cheap and so are anonymous words from someone you don't know. All I can say though is put this system to the test and see what you think.
If you want stellar sound in your price range I doubt you will beat the Klipsch KPT-942-B THX . Full range fidelity you will be shocked at and very efficient. Made for 200 seat theaters or small auditoriums and to be put into venues that demand great quality sound. It will fill that sized room up louder than you can stand with crystal clear audio. You know lots of people poo-poo these types of speakers and I don't get it. I suppose it is because they have never heard them but you are missing out if you are in the hunt and don't at least find a set to listen to.  I have had systems with the bass bin which does things like Toccata and Fugue in D Minor really well and the K-402 horn I have on my existing system goes from 500hz to 20khz and you will hear things you have never heard before with these.
