Speaker Suggestions $30K Sasha DAW competitor?


I have been contemplating some new speakers - I have Wilson Sasha 1's which sound fantastic, but the highs can be screechy on some songs.  I listen to rock, alternative, punk at concert volumes.  I am looking at the Sasha DAW's and ??  I just heard the Alexia V's - they are what I want, but they come with a $70K price tag - just too much - man did they sound absolutely stunning - I think they are THE BEST Wilson's in the entire line - if anyone has that kind of cash you should go hear them - stunning.    I wanted to consider the PS Audio FR30's (which I have not heard) before I made a final decision, and was going to Boulder to hear the FR30's, but PS mandates that you have to be vaccinated and boosted - my doctor said don't get the booster - PS can do whatever they want - but I draw the line on my health - so that one is out (I have their DAC and support has been great).  One of the reasons I liked the FR30 is the ribbon tweeter tech which I perceive might be good in that speaker - I find them pretty smooth (have heard similar tech in the Martin Logan stuff - and they are smooth indeed).   Not a fan of Magico, Sonus Faber or Elac - in my view and for my taste - they are not musical.  Looking for floor standers.  Thanking you all for your speaker input.

If you have the space give the Magnepan 20 and 30 series a listen they are always compared to speakers costing much more.

Lots of good suggestions. If you get a chance check out the Bowers and Wilkins 802 D4 or 801 D4 (just a bit over budget). Good luck in your search.

I would go with a KEF Blade 2 Meta or if you have a very big room the Blade 1 Meta. If you do not have side wall space, then look elsewhere.

I am going with Blade 2 Meta and a new KRELL amp on a long wall placement.

I was at ps audio listening to the fr30 a month ago and the only requirement is a mask. Rockport speakers should be a must audition on your list as well. Good luck!
