bookshelf speakers to replace my Maggies


I've loved Magenpan speakers from the first moment I heard a pair in 1983. I've owned and listened to various Maggies for twenty-five years but a few months ago my "vintage" speakers (1.5) gave out. For all the obvious space/marital reasons, I can't replace them, at least for now. I picked up a pair of PSB Imagine B speakers and I like them; they keep me going. But I sorely miss that Magnepan sound--the presence, the realism, the emotional beauty, the "air." I've never heard another speaker that can reproduce acoustic instruments like Maggies. 

I want to start scheming and thinking. I would greatly appreciate any advice on a pair of bookshelf speakers that might fill the void. I know this may sound illogical, but perhaps a pair that creates something somewhat similar to the Magnepan sound. (I understand that the designs are radically different, create different senses of space, etc.) Let's say under $4000. To be clear, I'm not looking for "the best bookshelf speaker" but, for those who know Maggies, the speaker that can have its own identity and yet ... how else to put this? ... make me happy the way my Maggies did.

Thank you very much!

Let me suggest a visit to John Rutan, Audio Connection, in Verona, NJ.  John helped get me started in this hobby about 30 years ago.  As knowledgeable as anyone in the industry and a great person.  
He responded to you a couple of posts ago, but in his humble way - he doesn’t “push” anything.  
There is a pair of Vapor Audio Cirrus black that were just posted here today for $1700. They will be very, very tough to beat at that price. 
Other speakers you should consider the Jantzen Valencia monitors, the Quad Z series uses a fantastic ribbon tweeter and are very inexpensive $2,500.00 for the Z2 monitor. 

You may also want to check out the Scansonic line and the higher end Elac monitors. 

Many of these systems with high technology tweeters capture some of the Maggie sound and in terms of image placement all of these monitors will recreate a more realistic sound stage then the Maggies. 
And, Audioconnection has both the Vandy VLR's and the new Maggies.
Johnny says they are selling like hotcakes.
