What is a good all around high quality speaker to purchase?

I'm looking for a high performance all around musical speaker. My previous speakers are:

Bose 501 - I was young and they served a purpose

Infinity SM150 - terrible from the start

Boston Acoustics T1000 - actually a nice all around speaker

Polk SDA-SRS1tl - loved the full sound, not accurate at all

Thiel 2.3 - Very dry sounding

B&W N802 - perhaps my favorite, but needed to be played loud

Thiel 3.7 - I think Jim's cancer affected his hearing

B&W 802D - 1st gen, still have.....please stop my ears from bleeding

What do you suggest?

If you want more of a traditional woody design there’s an endless list of Sonus Fabre Amati up grades available. Having said that with the FR 20s in place the Sonus would be history. Why ware Tennis shoes with a three piece suit, you’ve the perfect mates set up already IMO. Cheers
