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.

Lol..  enjoyable read..  lots of good info and opinions. There are many good speakers out there.  How they sound in your room is anybody’s guess except for you. Go after a speaker that matches your room’s needs, your systems requirements, wife acceptance factor.. etc..  narrow it down from there..  Your speakers will reveal your upstream weaknesses, if any, and you can adjust from there. 
Also b sure to understand the placement requirements of some speakers in relation to the the wall, etc..  Have heard many would be great sounding systems compromised by placement due to furniture, shape, etc..
Good luck and enjoy the ride
