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

From personal experience I have found Totem and Nola speakers to be the most natural and musical while being the most forgiving of room dynamics.  They have great speakers that are less than $5000 but also make them over $10000.

I currently am using Totem Twin Bisons and they totally disappear into the sound stage.  Totem recommendations are to setup with the speakers firing straight a head for the best soundstage.  Which I have validated.  No getting anal about setting toe in, etc.

Just my experience which is worth nothing in the big picture 

Sonus Faber New G2 3 models much trickle down technologies 

great customer feedback  from $4-$8k  excellent sonics and quality!!

@triton20trx appreciate your input on Totem ... always been enamored with that group!

get some room corrected actively driven speakers like Genelec SAMs and be done, forever.  hear what the recoding engineer heard!

A little higher than you are looking to spend, but consider the Wilson Audio Sasha DAW.  Good prices on the used market and a truly excellent and versatile speaker.  I have the Sabrina X’s, which are fantastic for my small 11.5x11.5x11 music room.  If my room was bigger, I would definitely have gone for the Sasha DAW.
