I would give the Thiel 2.4s a listen. They are highly resolving and get tone colors and timbral textures accurately. They are soundstaging and imaging champs. They do not plumb the depths of the LF spectrum but they have more than ample fast and tuneful bass. They have been unfairly tagged as being clinical/analytical. With high quality associated equipment (and at least 100w/ch of clean power), they are nothing of the sort rather they deliver what you are looking for in spades. And from an aesthetic point of view, I think they have a furniture-grade/meticulous finish and are easy on the eyes. If you have a chance to audition them, I would highly recommend them.
