Looking for suggestions on best small footprint speaker under $4K


Greetings
i’m a long time 2 channel system guy that rekindled his  interest in music and Is looking to upgrade speakers.    I just currently upgraded from a small  tube amp to a 150 W Krell amp and have really enjoyed the improved response from my  7 year old KEF LS50’s.     My favorite Brands of speakers over the years have been Maggie’s and B&W.   I have also downsized  homes and size of speaker is an issue.     Looking for the best sounding speaker for jazz and lite rock.    Attractive cabinets are important to me so I don’t like the looks of golden ear speakers..   25 years ago I loved Vandersteen speakers but they were just not attractive.

As I begin my search what would yoou suggest.   I have started looking at Monitor Audio and Salk but have not heard any.  My budget is $4K.

i appreciate your feedback.

I liked the Aerial 7T but bought the Paradigm Prestige 75F. The Aerial was amazing on voice but the Prestige were amazing on everything. I listen to a little of everything pop rock electronic trance blues piano and I haven't heard anything yet that made me regret my choice.
Easy one,  a pair of REVEL 206s, slightly used for $2700 pr, with a JLAUDIO E110 sub or something similar.   JAW DROPPING, FULL RANGE, for under $4k
