Of course, everyone's ears are different. But, based on my own experience, and my own ears, I'd keep an eye out for a pair of Ohm Walsh speakers, the more recent, the better. The current model for a room your size would be the Walsh 1000, which sells new for about $2K, so if you can find them used, they ought to be in your range. IME (I own the Walsh 2000), they would fit your requirements as far as sound quality is concerned.
Used full-range speakers less than $1,500
I am looking for used full range speakers to work with a solid state amplifier. I am looking for speakers that present a well balanced sound not emphasizing the treible or bass, but very musical.
On my short list of models and manufactures:
Alon Lotus Elite
Nola Viper IIa
Gershman -maybe out of my price range
Sonus Faber- again maybe out of my price range
Avalon - same as above
i listen to a variety of music from A to Z. The room is not very large : 14 x 19 with carpeting and no other sound treatments
Looking for your assistance to help identify potential brands/models to look at.....
