Check out the Legacy Audio Calibre, a new speaker that was just released. It’s right in your price range and maybe the ticket for you.

Standmount speakers 4k-8k
On the lookout for standmount/bookshelf in the 4k-8k range. I've now got Monitor Audio GX-50 which are great for the price but I'm looking higher now.
So far I've heard Aerial 5t, Totem Element Fire and Kef Reference one. The Kef's offer a huge sound, but are, hard to describe it, a bit grainy in tone. The Totem are sweeter, but a little dead sounding. The 5t were really quite good--fast, clear, lively. None of them had noticeably better bass than what I'm using now! so I'm still in the hunt.
Very interested to know if anyone has heard the new Monitor Platinum II line, particularly the 100s, which are what I'm interested in.
I'll be listening to some Focals soon, and Dynaudio.
Any other tips? I need to get something fairly small, and very conventional looking (that's why not listening to BW D3).
Thanks folks.
