If you are open to brands other than Tekton and Omega, Silverline Prelude Plus speakers meet many of your criteria: Silk dome tweeter: 92 db sensitivity (I'm driving a pair very satisfactorily with a 20 wpc First Watt amp); 40" height (40"x5:x8"). They are a good looking slender column with a rosewood veneer. They won't "embarrass" your living room. Available from Underwood HiFi and possibly for under $2k delivered. Worth calling or, at least, reading the StereoTimes review (see link). I doubt I've got "hyperacusis" but I can tell you harshness in the high end makes me crazy. The reason I got the Prelude Pluses in the first place was to find something a little more mellow than the Totem Forests I have. The Prelude Pluses did take a good long while to break in. They were purchased unheard, so a gamble. Initially, they had a LOT of treble energy and were NOT the solution I had hoped for. However, with break in time, the right amp (the F7 is a wonderful match; Hegel H200 works well too; Class D Taranis...not so much), attention to positioning and cabling, they have settled in and deliver smooth, enjoyable music across a range of types (classical, jazz, rock, electronica) - no high frequency induced ear-bleed. They produce bass but for LedZep, you might want a sub. I got a pair of very compact, sealed SB1000s from SVS. My total expenditure (all new) was right around $2700. Depending on room placement a single sub could suffice. Some listeners might not think any sub is needed. In the interest of full disclosure, however, and based on my experience....
Buying used and or a single sub should allow you to hit your $2500 budget target. Good luck in your search.
