Speaker choice


I listen to music at my living room second floor which is open space linking to first floor and about 12ft x 15 ft. 
 

My source is a Naim uniti atom network streamer and my amp is a Pass Labs XA30.5. I use to run this set up with a small harbeth p3ESR. But I couldn’t feel the speaker is not enough as the space is too huge for it. Now I have sold my speakers I m looking for a floor standing pair or a bigger XD speaker. 
 

budget : within $5k used unit. I will buy a subwoofer eventually to enhance the bass  if needed. Need to save up. 

I listen to mostly pop and orchestra music. I enjoy good and sweet Treble , clear , detail and musical vocal with lots of air and tight and solid base. I like my music that gives me the feeling that I am physically at the concert hall.

Which pair of speakers I should consider ?

You have a small room, you need to buy a speaker for a small room that plays big. If you ask a question like what is the best speaker, with 50 people responding, you will get 50 different responses which won’t get you anywhere. I just moved from a 27’ x 15’ room to a 12’ x 16’ room, had to get new speakers because my other speakers were too large.

i can list off many speakers I looked at but I’ll just tell you what I was looking at so you can make up your mind: floorstanding with multiple small woofers, midrange, and a Beryllium or Diamond tweeter. I also put in 2 rel t7x woofers.

Only you can determine which speaker sounds best so I would recommend attending a few audio shows or travel to a couple of dealers to actually listen to speakers.
