Need input on new speakers

Hi all, I currently have a pair of Vandersteen 1 ci+ and a Lyngdorf TDAI 1120 and I love it, but it does not shine when I listen to Rock mostly Grunge. So I'm putting a smaller room together it is about 12x12. I will be using a Rotel 1572mkii. I am in the U.S. and want to stay around $2000. I am disabled and permanently in a wheelchair so in the room I sit about 7.5 feet from where the speakers would sit. New or used does not matter, floor standing or bookshelf. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I have owned multiple KEF models. I'm currently enjoying the new Q Concerto Metas. They are very solid for rock music, with a very warm and robust bass - especially when coupled with a subwoofer.

That said, for the OP's needs I second the recommendation for Zu ahead of anything by KEF. Both the DWX and DW6 would be perfect for the OP's setup, and I can attest that they most definitely will rock. The DWX would probably be ideal. Have heard these speakers in several settings and they are like modern-day Cerwin-Vegas. Super easy to drive, powerful bass, and they will crank. Sound good, too.
