Speaker recommendations welcomed

Yes, this is a second system and it will not be replacing my first system which is using Rockport speakers if that helps with my preferences.

I can recommend 2 speakers which I have and love and fit your budget. Both from the US.

Omega Speakers- Junior 8 XRS. My favourite speakers. Love them enough, that I bought a tube amp from Louis (who is amazing to talk to) and buying 2 more pairs of speakers in the next few days. Half of your budget the Junior 8. And yes, I shipped everything to Dubai from CT.

DeVore Fidelity- O Baby- got them earlier this year. Love them too. Amazing to look at. Sound lovely. This would hit the top range of your budget.

For what it's worth. I would find some used Klipschprns and upgrade them with the full Volti Audio package. This is my final speaker purchase and I will not go back. Your total investment will be approximately $8000 but you will never have to buy another speaker
