Help me spend $6000

I’m looking to get the best bang for the dollar. My amp is the Pass Labs INT-25. I listen to a lot of jazz,folk,classic rock,and funk. 
Floor-stander or monitor is fine. Prefer new, but I’m open to used. I’m looking for a detailed presentation, but not bright. I also prefer a thick midrange. 

Room is a bonus room with knee walls with carpet and bookshelves everywhere, but not officially treated. I sit near field.

I don't believe you mentioned what kind of sound you have now and what sound you want to achieve.  The T5's are pretty small.  You might like the SALK Song3 Encores.  They sound really great playing jazz.

I really think your answer begins with some questions:

What have you owned and liked?

What have you owned and not liked?

What have you always wanted to try?

What is absolutely out of the realm of consideration?

Recently, I've owned Salk and Spatial Audio...both are fantastic and would probably easily meet your requirements...but maybe not depending on how you answer the four questions.

Ok so I just purchased a pair of Marten Oscar Duo stand mounts. 

Everyone can disregard this post. Thx for the comments.

Going for new loudspeakers was the right choice.

I would add a used pair of Joseph Audio Pulsars to your list.
