The most tower like stand mount under $4k

The title says it all.  What's the most "tower like" (i.e. accurate, musical, full sounding, not overly revealing or clinical) standmount speakers you've ever heard new or used around $3000(ish) ?

Also, what speaker (tower or standmount) are screaming deals of value and quality at or under this price?

I want to get quality but only up to the point of diminishing returns. I'm looking to equally spread the quality across integrated, speakers, and dac.

Just looking for the group to brainstorm suggestions for me. There are next to nothing in the way of brick and mortar hifi stores near me except Best Buy.
