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 ?

These Joseph Audio speakers will do everything you’re looking for including throwing off an expansive 3D soundstage and disappear as a sound source, and you wouldn’t need a sub unless you want one as they go down to about 25Hz.  The dealer allows for 30-day returns, and at $2799 they come in well under your $5k budget.  Best of luck.

Here’s a review that nicely captures its sound characteristics…

There is a Volti Audio Razz in blue on the US Audiomart which is a good deal. I auditioned the Razz a few days ago and pretty much sold but I am going to get the higher model Lucera or Rival…when I make up my mind when I can fly to  Volti audio for a more extensive audition.

There is a used pair of the Razz on the Volti audio web site..
