Standmount speakers. I have $5000.


I'm shopping standmount speakers. I have $5000.  New or pre-owned is fine.

And:

Micromega M100 integrated pre/amp/dac
Syzygy SLF870 sub x2 (12" drivers, 1200w ea, 20-200Hz, room correction)
Dynaudio Stand 4

room = ~5000 cu. ft, 20'x 18' with 13'-17' vaulted ceiling

The new standmounts will replace Nola Boxers v1 ($1500 new in 2013)

I'm lazy about travel to audition anything but might for local options (esp. to vet pre-owned). I'd probly deal with in-home trial.

As semi-arbitrary starting point I'm looking at Salk SS 7M's ($4995 new). Any others I simply must consider?

Thanks!

2 more to consider:

Ryan s610's:  I heard these at a show last spring.  It was one of the very few rooms that made me smile while listening.  It's a bit bigger standmount at 17-inches tall, goes down to 42hz.  Beryllium tweeters. $3995 and made in the US.  Getting good reviews.

Bryston Mini-T's:  A larger, 3-way monitor.  I own these, and have them on 16 inch stands.  8-inch drivers - no need for a sub.  My room is 30x15 and these fill it with ease.  Very happy with them.  About $3-4k new.
