There are two speaker systems I'd recommend in your price range. Buy either of these and you are DONE.
The first is the Dutch & Dutch 8c. It is a total audio system, not just a good loudspeaker. I have never seen a loudspeaker system so fully engineered. Just add a laptop PC or streamer and you're done. Comes with built-in, tri-amplified electronics, DSP EQ and DAC. You don't even need speaker cables. Just put it on your network and connect. There is some critical setup to do during installation, but when you're done, you'll have sound as good as anything, at any price. The imaging is the very best I've ever heard. No shortage of dynamics, low end or mid-range clarity and detail. Beyond stunning.
$12,000 new, retail. There's a pair used on Audiogon for $9750.
The other loudspeaker system is the Linkwitz LX521. Again, this is a fully tri-amplified and powered system. Pre-built with electronics is somewhere around $15,000. You can buy it as a kit and build it yourself, with a total project cost probably around $5000 - $6000. Up to you.
