Need help on an all rounder speaker under $5000


Hello dear audiogoners

I am newbie here and also to the world of high end audio.
I dont know whether 5000 is high end in the audio world but whatever.

I am not an audiophile and i am not looking for details and clarity in music. I want a system that is versatile, that can play everything form brilliant CD recordings to Compressed MP3 formats. All genres from rock to classical to electronic.

My collection is a mix of MP3, High quality audio, some CDs and also live recordings.
So i really needed something warm and colorful that can shine with everything. Something that is just a happy speaker!!
Most of all something that is enjoyable.
I request you all to give me some suggestions. I live in India so brand availability is a question but i get most of the brands here and can audition many of them of just shoot. Also if you can mention associated equipment.

Thanks for the response.
I have heard the B&W, i like them.

I just dont know if they will be okay playing an MP3 compressed file. Or they might actually make it sound really bad.
I am looking for a system that supports all kinds of low bit rate files as well.
So i guess Pro Audio is out because that will really make it it sound flat and ugly.
Thanks a lot everybody.
i will starting next week look to audition ATC, Harbeth and Gallo and PSb compare them with each other and B&W that i have heard.

I am not sure if i can get to hear Green mountain and Ohm Walsh in India.

Will let you all know what i think and maybe can get some more advice.
Thanks a lo!
I heard the gallo 3.5, was very impressed.
Now soon i will here legacy, psb.

Hopefully will be able to make a decision then.
Thank you all for the help.
